Sprocket 101

[MaverickRD]

Hey guys....

 

I would like to know how do u figure out which sprocket size would give u high acceleration or high speed... ( short distance or long distance )

Like the reading on the sprocket.....

Must there be a specific pair???

 

Also, does anyone know whats the standard sprocket size for RXZ???

Is it 16 42 or 14 38 ???

 

Hope this will benefit everyone else as much as for me....

Thanks Everyone... :thumb:

 

 

Pls do share ur comments, experience, incident and joke....

i hope u know tat ur bike's power will not increase..it will still produce e same power..its just tat u will reach the same RPM earlier(tat means at a lower speed)than normal if u drop ur front or increase ur rear..there will also be additional speedo error

imagine ur gearing like a mountain bike ...big front small back = top end ....small front big back = pick up
