Gearing

Any issues with running a 15T front on an EXUP??

Any comments around what differences big/small sprockets make (what I mean is, for example 15/45 and 16/48 both give exactly the same final gearing but is there an additional effect due to bigger / smaller sprockets at the countershaft and rear sprocket)

My feeling is that even if the final gearing is the same, there must be some effect when the engine is turning a smaller countershaft sprocket and/or turning a larger rear sprocket.

Hi Jason,
