davey1991 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I need some help for my park bike. I don't want to run silly low gearing but i would quite like to use trialtech cranks. Is it possible to get say 28-32t screw on sprockets or maybe even screw on spiders? This may be a stupid question and i know screw on cranks are designed to allow the use of very low gearing, but any help is appreciated.

Revolver Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I guess if you found a set of cranks with a removeable spider you could make it screw-on? The biggest sprocket I know of is the trialtech one, 23t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest sprocket I know of is the trialtech one, 23t. See that could almost work, 23-12 is almost the same as what im using now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 And if you bought a mtb spaced driver hub, you could have 23-9. But it's not a king, is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gave up on the king and went for a pro 2, i don't trust myself. Edit: spelling. Edited April 18, 2010 by davey1991 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pogo Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) What gearing do you want to use? Couldn't you just taylor the ratio's to make it a bit higher? Surly go up to 22t screw on sprockets, 22:12? Edited April 18, 2010 by pogo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
