Re: Sprocket questions

Thanks for the advice guys. I feel just the same about welding, and it may well leave an edge to catch the belt as well as distort the pulley. I have a new sprocket and bolts on the way from the dealers for £178! I'll fit it myself and let no monkeys near it, then take the bill to the soon to be ex-tyre supplier of mine, together with the opinion that 50,000 or so miles is about OK, and therefore some sensible contrib. on a 32,000 mile sprocket would be in order. It depends on how much he values his reputation, of course. I simply cannot afford to change belt and front sprocket!

Enjoy the sunny days, especially brill here in South and Mid Wales where the roads are truly superb - but be careful of speed camera vans if you visit, as it seems that they have been breeding them over the winter.
