Most modern sprockets are made to fit either 19mm or 22mm spindles but there is a good chance that spindle is around 23.8mm... If in doubt,take it to a bike shop (NOT Halfrauds...)

Post by: HEYWOOD BMX on February 06, 2010, 07:51 PM: :) If your bikeshop guy says 24,then it`ll no doubt be 23.8mm.This is an old school size,try the for sale section on here,you`ll need a one piece sprocket or one with a spider and bolts..
