Hello there i am doing a University Project where i have to design and build a website, I am going to design a website on the gearing formulas on a bike. 22÷18=1.222 what does the 1.222 mean? does it mean that the lower the number the quicker your going to pedal? and the higher the number the harder it is to pedal?? (20 x 18) ÷ 12 = 30 (26 x 20) ÷ 17 = 30.588 why is the 26(stock) more stiffer??? sorry if i sound dumb. are there any more formulas i dont dont about? thankyou ben
