Last year I made a HUGE mistake in my gearing calculations, and I really don't want to repeat that mistake this year. Last year I used a computer program. This year, Stan Back was kind enough to send me a magic wheel!
I'm simply hoping someone can double check my numbers, so I don't end up under geared like last year!
I've done all the calculations at 5000 rpm, 28" tires, and Halibrand QC.
155 mph=2.8 gears
165 mph=2.55 gears
175 mph=2.4 gears
Am I figuring this right? Am I forgetting something that will effect the proper gear choice?
Thanks in advance!
