gearing

I think I'm on 17 & 57. Goes alright acceleration and top end. I think this is factory sizes on the RE model, I haven't changed them since I got it and I don't think previous owners would have gone away from standard

wink you finding it bogs down in 6th with that gearing at all? when you go up a slight hill or strong head wind standard is 16 57

Standard on RE is 16/57
I changed for a 17 tooth for more top end and it made barely any difference
That's all I tried lol

That chart is very helpful that should be a sticky.

Imagine how fast your dt would be off the line with 63 & 14
