Im just wondering what geering do you run?
Im running 39-14

39-16 on one bike and a monster 44 -16 on the other but i am changing that to probly a 39- 14 shortly, probly getting an oddessy utility sproket

30/11 the way it should be.

Im running 44-16 prob going to downsize to 39-16

39-16, but my wheels are bigger than yours.

44-16

28/11 on the Quamen, 25/10 on the S&M which will be going to 25/9 when I get my hands on a 9t driver, and 48/17 on the fixed gear. :D

30-10. going down to 25-10

28-10.

44 - 16

36-16

29/12 Got a RNC 25 or 26 to put on at some point though.

30/11 the way it should be.


Exactly. same here.

uhhh, just so you know... 44-16 would be the same as 39-14

of course i know that, thats how i want it to be, i just want a smaller sprocket, if i can fit it with my chainstay brakes i might go for a 36 - 13

39/13

Still running 44-16.

went from 25-9 to a 30-11 on the old pw, and 45-15 on the bi*chen camaro.

My Camaro had the GM 12 bolt positraction, running 4:10 gears...

nice

since when is 44-16 a monster gear? thats the average gear ratio for the past 15+ years... true, i would rather have 2 smaller gears to lighten the back end up. a monster gear i would say is 46-16 or larger (like when i used to race back in the day)... ok, thats my take on things.

39/14

You must be younger than me. 44-16 was the average gear about 30 years ago. And some bikes were pretty heavy then. 44-16 on a 24" cruiser would be a bit of a workout though.

2001 or so.

44-16 is far from monster. When I had my hoop-D I ran 44-14, it was actually quite good. If you call 44-16 monster gearing you must have weak legs.Now for the skate park 44-16 might be a little toublesome. Clearing some stuff might be a b1tch.

Monster as in large, not tall, you moron.

Well i thought monster meant tall.

what the hell are you talking about FTC, its not hard to ride skateparks w/ a 44-16 at all.

Monster as in large, not tall, you moron.

Does this make me a moron too? Because when it comes to road and MTB chainrings, we refer to anything bigger than normal size as "Monster". Like a 56t on a road bike. Wait, I know I'm not a moron, you must be referring to Chuck.

a 56t is a biggen!

I didn't say it was hard, it'd be a little harder to clear crap but thats it. Also Ex, I'd like to welcome you to the group, the morons. You here to stay or just to visit, the morons?

Thanks, but I'll continue to be a mere observer of the actions of the less mentally fortunate.

I was trying to join club ******* but they never returned my calls.

thats pretty cool Expat...but i think he was talkin about his FBM *****in Camaro....silly goose!

39/14
fo sho!....39-14 is the way to go....(if your poor like me and havent destroyed your Ody flip-flop hub from 2000....haha

what's up with this lightweight-everything trend?

Ask Chris Moeller. He started it all with the Dirtbike; that frame was way ahead of it's time when the mid and late 90s rolled around.

I miss that car. Sorry.

i wish i could talk to Chris Moeller...but i think he lives in California and i live in Virginia...so its not gona be easy


I miss that car. Sorry.

im sorry about your loss. would you like to share a story about it?

What would kinda be funny is if ex put a Chevy 454 big block in his Tandem MTN bike, in memory of his Camaro.

im sorry about your loss. would you like to share a story about it?

Ex wife sold it to buy a house. 1968 Rally Sport, 327 with fat cam, 2.02 heads, M21 four speed, 12 bolt posi rear end with factory 4:10 gears. Metallic blue with polished Centerlines and working vacuum operated hideaway headlights. Very quick.

I would have made her "disapear". For doing something that terrible.

My son wouldn't like that.

Give your son a Camaro like that one, and an ex wife that sells it for a house, Im sure he'd make her disapear.

Yeah, good luck finding another at a decent price. And stop being stupid.
