How many teeth on final drive and rear wheel sprocket for standard 247 please?

Anyone and opinion on better combination?

Thanks

Hi

If we are talking Cota 247 mk1 through to mk5 ( UKR ) then the standard final drive was 10 T and rear sprocket 48 T.

Mine was originally running this setup but our Club sections are usually based on tight turns and sharp instant climbs so I fitted a 9 T final which gives a nice low 1st gear ideal for slow speed turns without using the clutch and better 2nd gear use for general use and 3rd for long climbs and muddy work. The only drawback would be Top Speed if you did any roadwork on your trials!

The other benefit of just changing the final drive is the gear is cheap and easy to change.

Thank, that explains a lot. This one is 11x48 and feels too high geared.

Cheers

9 - 42 on mine ...... Seems to work ok
