I have a question I'm 13 and my sprockets on my tblazer were wore down by seven months and one of the rollers on the chain was completely off and another one was bend like an egg shape. I ride kinda hard and do lots of donuts and slide around. Now the sprockts teeth were not worn down they were ripped off. And my dad blames me for the sprockets and I had to pay for them. Now what do u guys think did it the rollers of and bend or doing donuts and rippen around?

Thanks for all who reply.

Did you keep an eye on your chain tension?

If i'm not mistaken you have a years warranty on the drive chain. You should get that covered. The problem does sound as if your chain tension may have been either to loose or to tight. I would speculate to tight.

Ooops! I forgot about the year warrenty when my first cahin broke. Could have saved me $70!

 

My TB is on orginal Sprokets, but with a new chain.

The old chain, a very large man rode it, hit a hole, the chain flew off tore a hole in the tranny case then smashed about 4 links.

If it wasn't for that, it would still have the orginal chain!
