what do ya think she'll put out? 700hp? I don't know what TSW stands for except the name of the company that imports Marvic. Brembo, and Marchicini wheels. I really doubt they have anything that small, my guess is 37 would be the smallest. you would probably have to make one.

Whatever sprocket you use should be fastened with studs and the appropriate nuts.
Some wheels feature a bolt that is threaded into the wheel and will wear the threads each time you have to remove it.
Bolts usually have the thread in shear at the point where the sprocket meets the surface of the wheel.
Heat treated studs can be fitted to the wheel with a slight bore recess to allow the stud to go in far enough so the smooth shank takes the burden of the shear. :wink:
