My brain says; 1/8th runs fine on 3/32 but wears ever so slightly quicker?
On a brompton it’s fine, just some of the older ones had 1/8th pitch sprocket and chainring so obv can’t run 3/32
Wears quicker because it’s a bit too wide? Never thought about that.
Not sure what my rear sprockets are actually, could well be 1/8” if I’ve changed them…
Yeah because it can move side to side more? Could be an old wives tail tbh!
