Hi Jay,
I run Talon on the Bandit and they are a bit wider. They are like this to give a bit more strength being alloy, but ive had no probs with mine. Is the chain good, tensioned correctly and the wheel in line as they are a bit more sensitve to set up.

yep everthing new , and i also put some shims in the rear sprocket as the chain was snagging on the right side of the chain , still same ,thinking of going back to the dull grey sprocket .alignment is good too
