Hi guys! Just recently done a great trial down at frensham vale! great but with very tight turns with hardly any run up on the climbs this combined with the sandy/loamy soil high lighted the fact that the yams gearing is to high im running 10/41 sprockets on the bike! i feel that i ll need a 44/45 final rear sprocket! but does this make it to low? as i was using 1st /2nd gears at first but had to do the lot in first gear in the end! as found i had to abuse the clutch to much when riding in second!

any input on this would be great! :beer:

Yes that gearing is a bit high. I use 12/53 (428 chain) which is the same gearing as 10/44 and my first works well in tight stuff.

Yes you will need second gear for climbing big banks.

The motor is currently a standard (250) except for the lightened flywheel.
