Default How to change a sprocket

Hes talking abotu the bottom bolts to adjust how far the axle is twisted out :-P The top bolts are 17mm. Im pretty positive. I might be changing my sprocket soon. Anyone know a good place to get a combo deal for front, rear sprockets and a new chain? I head you can get a good set for about $70-100. I want more top end so I think im gunna go 15 tooth front and 40 rear. Would anyone recommend this? I do a little hill climbing but I love going fast and stuff. Thanks

I'm constantly changing my front tooth, depending on what im doing for the week. For aggressive trail riding, i prefer the 14 front, thats just my opinion though, the 15 only gives you 5-6 mph on top end, and it takes ALOT of acceleration away... its also harder to ride a wheelie with a 15 on the front.
