!Harris! Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 Try experimenting with different gearings then you will come to a conclusion on which one you like best to ride with ( Around a 18T - 19T Should be alright for a 22T Chainring) Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sstein Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 This has been said in pretty much every other discussion on the same topic and in fact a few of the posts on this one. DO NOT USE A GEAR BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE TELLS YOU IT IS RIGHT! I am not having a go, I jsut feel that it is important that you try a couple of different gears, maybe one per ride until you find one you get comfertable with. Probably the most common is 22:18 however everyone prefers using slightly different gearing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Dark Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 the most common ratios are normally 22:18 and 18:16.... ( burns etc and freewheel / singlespeed kit ) or ( Front freewheel and singlespeed kit / fixed hub ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
