Street gearing

[JJ..]

I'm looking at the option of going for slightly higher gearing for my new Flow,

Its 22 front 16 rear,

I imagine it's best to go for a new larger rear ?

If so would 18 be much different to 16 ?

 

Thanks

Of course I meant a 14 which is of course smaller

I don't think you will be able to find a freewheel smaller than 16t that will fit on the rear of your Flow unfortunately, there may be a 15t BMX freewheel that will fit however they are usually not up to the punishment trials puts on them and I wouldn't recommend using one. The other option would be to put a larger sprocket on the cranks, however I am not sure if you would have the clearance for this.

 

Unless you want to spend a fair bit of money on a hope hub or something equivalent to be able to put splined sprockets on the bikes are pretty set in the gearing they come with.

Thanks,

It's still new to me coming from RD and MTB,

It's something I suppose I'll get used to, The bike feels perfect when at my fav session area (demolished factory/foundry site) but I got to ride a couple of miles to it,

Thanks for your answer
