[pickle]

if i have a 13t rear freewheel, what is a good normal sort of sized front sproket?   

[dordymush]

i used a 36 rob and felt about right.

If its for a park bike then you'll need a 33

[Voodoocars]

Take your brakes off...........

[fugazi]

These are the ratios most people pair up 

44/16
41/15
39/14
36/13
33/12
30/11
28/10
25/9
23/8

[dordymush]

you'll want a 36 then rob.
my brake was rubbing when i went to a 33.
just watch what brake you use to as i bought an oddy evolver and it was to deep and hit the chain.

[pickle]

yeah......i'm looking for the lowest going.......(although getting stick for it) but the oddy II don't look that high?  also i run a AD999 on my proper which isn't that high so may go for one of those??

a call to Stodgy will sort it all out

Bugger !!

so whats the deal with park bikes?

I have a 14T rear and have just bought a 39T front.
Do i need to go down a bit on the front?

Haven't rode it yet but only intend to have a go in the parks.

  *No,39T is the correct gearing.Fugazi33`s list is correct.

Nice one 

it confused me cos his list said that the correct gearing for 13t rear was 13/36, but Magna told him it should be 33 for a park.
So i thought I would have to also come down for my ratio. But if you feel 39t is good then that will do for me

  I also have 40t and 34t  chainrings for sale....close enough to 39/33....

[dordymush]

i would'nt worry to much anyway.
you roll more than you pedal

I ride with a Demolition Vulcan on the chainstays and I can run a 25/9 .

Also the Demolition is a great brake
