Mikee Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 I have heard that 18:12 is a really popular gear ratio for mod bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikee Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 (edited) If you want to keep your 22t up front then 15t will be best on the back. Edited May 8, 2009 by Mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pashley-phil Posted May 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 yeah my bike is 26'', i've only got a 20 and 18 so i'll try the 18 firs, cheers for your input, just one more question whats the best rear sprocket to buy as my last one started to cut in to the free hub body quite bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austen Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 If your sprockets cutting into your free-hub body it can't be wide based, so when you buy a sprocket make sure it's wide based Thats the sprocket i'm running, cheap and wide based Hasn't cut into my free hub body at all Click me for sprocket!
