BB vs SB on 10 cub

Sb ftw , that's what they were made for Matt himself will tell you that , also on the smaller motors the pipe is made for revving wich in turn that's where the cubs make most of the power

Just because Mat says a specific pipe was built for a specific motor doesn't necessarily mean it's going to the best pipe in every single set up.

 

I'm sure he would never in a million years recommend his BB in-frame for an 18DM when it actually makes within 6HP of his out-frames for that motor.

 

Just saying. Carry on.

i have a 10cub built by redline. im running shearer sb's. the bike works super great with them, power everywhere. cameron told me that bb's would probably make a couple peak hp up top but would probably give up some of the bottom and mid range.

Cam built my 10mm Cub also. I had OG Rockets on it to begin with. Bought a set of BB Shearers and ran them. I don't think I even talked to him about it. I just did it.

If i was competing in timed comps. or truly raced against others im sure i would of tried a set of the bb's for sure! But for what i do with my shit turd i kinda was after a broad curve so i am totally cool with giving up some hp on the big end.

Now that I am home and not typing from my phone, I will expand on my previous post.

 

What I mean in saying that a certain pipe may not work best for every single motor of a certain type, 10mm Cub in this example, is that not everyone uses the motor the same way.

 

Typically, Shearer or any other pipe builder is trying to sell you that their pipe makes the most peak horsepower.

 

In some uses, peak horsepower may not be the best way to go or best for that build. Maybe you need a broad curve or more bottom end opposed to peak horsepower.

 

Set up is key. Pipe choice should be decided on when you understand what you're going to be doing with the motor and how the pipe will affect that.
