This 15-tooth steel front sprocket is a precision-machined countershaft sprocket designed for motorcycles and dirt bikes running a 520 pitch drive chain. With a 15-tooth count, it provides a shorter, more aggressive gearing ratio — delivering stronger low-end torque and improved acceleration at the expense of top-end speed.
Key Features
- 15-tooth front sprocket for 520 pitch chain
- Precision-machined steel for durability, accurate fit, and long wear life
- Aggressive gearing ratio suited to off-road, motocross, and low-end torque applications
- Steel construction handles heavy use and wears better than aluminium alternatives
What does a 15-tooth front sprocket do?
A smaller front sprocket lowers the final drive ratio, increasing acceleration and low-end pull. This makes the 15T an ideal choice for trail riding, motocross, tight technical terrain, or any application where strong bottom-end response is preferred over top speed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What chain pitch does this sprocket suit? This sprocket is designed for 520-pitch chains. Confirm your existing chain pitch before purchasing.
Will a 15T sprocket affect my top speed? Yes. A smaller front sprocket increases torque and acceleration but reduces maximum top speed compared to a larger front sprocket.
Should I replace my chain and rear sprocket at the same time? Yes. Replacing the front sprocket, rear sprocket, and chain together ensures even wear and optimal drivetrain longevity.
