bing Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 This being my first proper attempt at a dedicated street bike, I'm unsure of what gearing to try. I've had 22-17 and it felt too light. I've currently changed it to 18-13(changed cranks and bb) but not ride it yet. What do you streety boss use? Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I used 18-13 on my Fourplay and Zoot and felt spot on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Gibbs Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I ran 22-16 on my Monty urban and that felt spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Gibbs Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Mainly street as I was (am) still learning back wheel hopping! Prehaps you might try 22-17 or 22-18 if you wanna do more trials. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bing Posted April 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 I've recently bought a 24, and it's on 22-15 now I've changed the cranks. 22-17 felt too light. It can do trialsy stuff, but it's me that's not used to after years on stuff with big stems 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
