Just got the tree og spline drive sprocket today, and when putting it on i stripped my cranks bolt, the sprocket still isn't fully on, i don't see why everybody says they are the best, they may be the strongest but other than that it's just like any other sprocket but impossible to put on

I don't think there is a possible way to to it wrong, and if there is a proper way to put it on there should of been a instruction thingy attached, but tree was too lazy i guess. I looked up videos online and didn't find a single assembly thing

Some spindles are slightly tapered. What spindle are you using

It seems like you're shitting on the Tree sprocket only cause you can't put it on.

Pretty sure he had a Lite, and everyone wanted one before that. Tree's been known to make the best sprockets for quite some time.

If Tree made a 27T OG with a half guard, I would take it over my MDS. Till then, nope.

This is how profile recommends doing it Here but from you stripping your crank bolt i'd guess you probably did it this way. I actually have those same cranks and sprocket and i managed to install it without stripping anything but yeah it wasn't a fun time. All i can say is make sure you have a precise fitting allen key, use alot of grease, and take your time to make sure nothing is getting fucked up.

I just want 27T because I just got 170mm Powerbites and I think it would feel better than 28T. And I want a guard sprocket, but my Powerbites won't work with my MDS.

You can flip the mds around or grind the arm down to fit it

Why don't you get 2 guards for the OG sprocket.
It seems like there would be enough space for it.
