cruiser gearing help again again Sorry
« on: March 28, 2008, 03:08 PM »
Im a bit of a dumb ass when it comes to gear ratios and all that,
If i've got a 16t freewheel whats the smallest freewheel i can use on a cruiser that wont spin like a hamster?

or if you have a flip flop hub (large thread one side, smaller on the other)

30/13
33/14

Or you could change to a 15T freewheel that fits std hubs (same thread as a 16/17/18 t freewheel)

Choices choices  :daumenhoch:
