Hey all, I've decided to lose a tooth on the front and add one maybe two on the rear. Pretty much come to the conclusion that I don't need to be pushing the ol' girl to 160ish anymore. However, I am curious for any of you who have already changed sprockets, how much did you lose on the top end and at what gear did you feel it begin to lack ( just in case the voice comes back while I'm on I84!!)? Also, can anyone suggest a site that has some sick rear sp... I like the Vortex but wondering if that's as good as it gets?

I thought I would edit this post because while I was looking for sprockets, 520 conversions caught my eye, specifically this one...

- any thoughts would be appreciated as I am experienced enough to admit that I am not too experienced at all.
