ok here is my delema i have a 46/combo rite now witch is reely hard to petal so i was went out and bought a 30teeth chain whele and stillused my 17 tooth freewhele and it was crazy liek a full petal would get me an inch so can some pleas tell me a ratio like 30/13 that is a good even pedal ratio and i cant go lower than 13 on the freewhele cuz i dont got a casset hub.


thanks in advance

44x16 is 'standard' in the industry. That is exactly 2.75 teeth on the rear sprocket to every ONE tooth on the front sprocket. So, if you have a hub that can take a 13 tooth freewheel (DOES YOUR HUB ACTUALLY TAKE DOWNDRIVE STYLE FREEWHEELS?) then you can run about a 36 or 35/13 ratio and it will feel similar to 44x16. Go to 33 or 31 if you want easier pedalling.
