Update: swapped out to a 17T front sprocket as it still needed some more top end, plus first is basically a super-low gear and runs out of steam fast. Will test when weather cooperates and see if the 17T is a keeper or if the 16T was the sweet spot. Unlike some of the other China bikes, this change did not require any grinding of the sprocket cover to make it fit. With the 17T the chain is tight in a couple of spots when on the kickstand, when compressed it has the proper range of tightness; will leave as is pending a road test.
