    One thing to keep in mind is the sprockets are not press on meaning they may not be 100% centered when you bolt them down. There is a very small amount of free play or you'll never be able to remove them in the first place. Now take the diameter of the sprocket and it starts to add up.

    So when you adjust the chain and spin the tire it could get tight and lose again even with new sprockets and chain.

    Nothing to get excited about just nice to know it could happen.
