Ritzel Puch Maxi 16 Teeth – More Speed for Your Moped
Optimize the gearing of your vehicle with this high-quality 16-tooth drive sprocket. Specifically designed for the Puch Maxi models, this sprocket is the perfect choice if you want to increase the top speed of your moped. With a larger number of teeth compared to the standard sprocket, the gear ratio changes so that your engine delivers a higher speed to the road at the same RPM.
The sprocket is made from robust, hardened steel, ensuring high wear resistance and a long lifespan – even with tuned engines or in daily use. The precise tooth design ensures a smooth chain run and optimal power transmission.
Tips for Installation and Maintenance
Check chain tension: After replacing the sprocket, you must readjust the chain tension. Since the 16-tooth sprocket is larger than the standard version, the chain will sit tighter.
Consider chain length: In some cases, you may need a longer chain if the existing chain is too short for the larger sprocket.
Lubrication: Take the opportunity to thoroughly clean your chain before re-tightening it after installation. A well-lubricated system reduces friction and noise.
Securing: Make sure that the safety plate or nut is correctly mounted and tightened so that the sprocket cannot come loose while riding.
