BMX...Would This Be Possible?

Question

Ive got an Eastern ShovelHead 08 bmx with the standard crank. But i want to put a nano drive sprocket on it. Would it work if i got my dad (who is an engineer) to move down the bit on the crank where you bolt on the sprocket to the right place for a small sprocket?

Answer 1

should work but the eastern medusa light sprokrt is better

Answer 2

yes, it will work but it might weaken the crank arm so be careful. also what tooth freewheel/cassette you got on the back. if you get an 18 tooth sprocket you need a very small cog on the back. it will most likely snap ect. because it will be under so much pressure.

go for a 25t sprocket and a 9th cassette rear. thats what i run and its fine.

Answer 3

yep it should work...but have u checked out danscomp.com and jrbicycles.com for crank arms and sprockets? they have a really good range and good prices

Answer 4

i guess anything is possible if you do it really well but theres that possibility that it will s***w up, btw i know what i'm talking about lol and why would you even want that, its way to small get a 28 or something

get back to me on why on earth you would want it
