watto Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 There isn't really specific ratios , its best to find out what feels best for you , but i would have thought around a 14 or 15t , but been as you have a cassette on it at the moment liam keep moving it up on down the cogs until you find a comfortable ratio .

Mr-BT Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 I use a 18 tooth on the front and a 16 on the rear nice gearing,but it really does depend on wat you like, because one of my mates use's and 18 on the front and 4 on the rear. anyway just keep trying see wat you like.

onza t-rex Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 hi got the t-rex and it came with an 8 speed but i got rid of it all and put a 22t cog on the front and the gusset single speed kit form tartybikes and put the 18t cog on the rear and it is really nice. might cost a bit but its worth the money hope i helped nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wright Pads Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 15T is what you'd be best with on the back if running an 18T on the front. I run 20:17 thus is 18@15 just normal sized though not mod styeldBy the way you made the right move to stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lankyri Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 im running 18 on the front and 16th on the rear on my t rex and the gearing is really helpful as its not to loose so u cant get to places and its not to hard that you cant hop around with ease, but if i can b bothered i may go back to gears and find a better gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
