Ermmmm
I'm not intending on racing them if that's what u mean? :-[
Just want reasonable components on them and not just cheap sh!t

What I mean is........ if you intend on riding them (even just round the block) and you are as you said "not fussed about the number of teeth" then depending on your chainwheel size your gearing could be such that you are pedaling like mad getting nowhere or sruggling to pedal just a few cranks up a gentle slope :-X
But if it's just for a carpet queen then I guess it's whatever you like the look of (all chrome or black/chrome etc.) rather than how it performs ;)

Ah, gotcha :-[ Both bikes now have 44T and the one with the Dicta Sproket I believe is a 16T.
The 44T chainring on the Torker has recently been changed from a 40T. I haven't ridden it like this yet but the 40T/16T combination is a bit strenuous to say the least :shocked:.
Didn't know what to expect as I've put on just a "few" pounds from 25 years ago and of course not as young or fit as back then!
I haven't got a clue where to start in order to buy more intelligently to get the combination that will suit me best :-\
