Re: front sprocket
Dont know about the play but don't whack the chain with a hammer, the rivit needs to splayed out so it doesn't come out.

Re: front sprocket
I think that standard sprockets have a rubber disc on them to keep the noise down, and aftermarket ones don't, I've just wiggled mine, and there's some play there, so nothing to worry about as far as i can tell..
