I'm getting two sprockets - a 19 Front & 35 Rear. Both are being made in steel. Honestly due to difficult communications, I am not sure if they are plain steel or stainless like Chip's sprockets. I am assuming the later.
Price slightly over $135 included s&h.
I ordered & picked up yesterday, spare wheel studs, front sprocket washer & bolt, rear wheel lock nuts, and 2 (1 spare) chain master. I will cut/shorten the chain as necessary and re-rivet it with the new master to the correct size. I will also install new lock nuts to the correct wheel torques.
I just heard from 7GD, "The sprockets are clear coated only, they are made from 1045 stock." That's why they look stainless. Common misperception, SS is always better - reality SS is not as strong as good steel.
Here are technical #s for simple comparison purposes - don't look if you are prone to headaches
