new sprocket and chain tomorrow.

In preparation for my new sprockets and chain tomorrow I thought a little cleaning would be appropriate. The following are pics of the front sprocket after 25,000 km(15500 mille). Very little wear by my eyes but with a new chain going on why use an old sprocket and promote a shorter life span for the chain. The rear will also be replaced. Pics of the sprocket cover are after said distance with little build up of mung and chain lube. I have used Du Pont with teflon all this time. Prior to that the original front sprocket was incased in a big blob of mung and dirty stuff. The sprocket cover was a total disaster too. Full of stuff and just enough room where the sprocket rotated.
This is probably after 2 or 3 chain cleaning sessions. Bad but I was curious about build up with Du Pont. I am impressed.

Cleaned up the cover using Sunlight liquid dish soap and paper towels.
