Callum Trialsin Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 on my trials bike i run 22t on front and 17t on back dunno wat psi softer front than backbmx u want 36t front spocket or higher for dirt, hard as you can get psi, so u can get alot of speedbut for park u want 32t or 34t front spocket, hard as you can psi again, this is so u can accelerate quick from stall or sumthinprobably use 17t on the back for both park and dirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben_travis Posted December 16, 2005 Report Share Posted December 16, 2005 16:14, perfect for street and natural.adamant a1tyres are around 20psi or so, maybe less, cos i have new echo rims so to get bounce i run em lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downhill_rob2@hotmail.com Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 (edited) u think i should go 14t back 16t front rather than an 18t.im coverting from onza t-pro 13t back 18t front.you would only be able to gep like 2 foot MAX!!! lol changing any higher tooth rings on the back (should be 12t) and 18t on the front (front freewheel) then your going to get a VERY light gear, and it will feel terrible! lol13t on the back is lighter than it should be aswell...I run the standard 12t on the rear and 18t FFS on the frontEDIT: running 12PSi on the front and around 15PSi on the rear Edited December 17, 2005 by terror-error Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dai the Socket Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 Ive got a Python 05, and run 18:13 with 158mm Monty Cranks.Due to the bike 'stays being long and the geo, with short cranks, it seemed too hard to stick with 18:12 but im planning on getting some nice tensiles or something, then changing back to 12t on the rear, maximum distance per kick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaRtZ Posted December 17, 2005 Report Share Posted December 17, 2005 18:12 zona zipSoft ass tyres Its not JUST gear ratio that determines acceleration. The length of your cranks can also allow you to gap further if you use longer cranks. The longer lever (a la cranks du tensiles) provides greater acceleration over a short distance. Great for static moves, but if you overdoo it then your top speed will be around 2 mph down a hill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
