Here’s some good news for those of you who like to run a little bigger gearing. The crew over at Eclat have released Alex Kennedy‘s signature AK Guard Sprocket in a 28-tooth size, to go along with the original 25-tooth size. This 8mm thick sprocket is made from CNC machined 6061-T6 alloy with additional machining for a unique look and additional weight savings and a 24mm bore, so you can run this sprocket on cranks with a 24mm, 22mm or 19mm spindle. The 10mm thick replaceable guard is made from a nylon and fiberglass mix with 4 bolts to hold it all together. Simply rotate the guard to extend the life or replace it as it wears out.
The 28-tooth AK Guard Sprocket is available through BMX shops and mail-orders that carry Eclat worldwide now.
