Trick Gearing?
 
Anyone know a rear cog that would make my front 48 tooth east to trick with? so i could wheelie easier? i already run a 18 on the rear cog but it isnt enough. anyone know what gearing the macaframa guys use?

Trick gearings are miniscule... 48/21 does not even come close. Also I heard it helps to be super buff to wheelie easier and bar spinz for dayz.

Macaframa guys run 51/14. Which tells me that you have to HTFU.

Slow shutter speeds and post-editing work mixed with a good soundtrack.

Ride more.

well i can wheelie my bike, just not easily. idk how the gear thing works tho. the bigger the rear the easier it is to pedal? or the front? care to explain? i know i sound stupid, but i JUST started working on my bike. ive been riding it for 6 months but now im bored of just riding around

i have rode for 6 months. and can wheelie just not easily. look up keo curry. whats his gearing!?

Read what Sheldon Brown has to say about gear ratios and gear inches. If I were you I'd swap out the chainring for something much smaller, 42 or 44 tops. Bigger cog, too; 19 or 21. (44-21 would be great of you plan to skid a lot; research "skid patches").

all of the guys in the movie macaframa are running pretty high gear ratios. a "trick" ratio will be a LOT lower

Is that a new conjunction? Shouldn't it have an apostrophe?

prooftheory 08-12-11 09:07 AM

It's a compound word like cowboy or crankarm. No apostrophe.
