you remember that shifting your body weight more to the front, away from the back wheel, will make you skid when you lock your feet? so why not work on that first. |
i run 48-20, a 65 inch ratio. im a weak ass 5'6 and 65 inches is almost TOO low. Skidding is effortless, any lower and it will be like riding a kids bike. the difference between 70 and 65 is HUGE. any lower than 65 and i would be surprised if you pass 15mph. trust me dont drop below 65 unless you have some kind of knee injury
http://software.bareknucklebrigade.c...it.applet.html ^^that will help you figure out inches and skid patches. if you want something easily skiddable, id say go with a cog between 18 and 20. |
