91-421 Posted June 5, 2006 Report Posted June 5, 2006 I'm trying to decide what gearing to run. I'm building a monster dune bike (at least I like to think a little 421 is a monster). Setup will be a Passion built drag ported 421 cub, 35mm's, lockup yada yada yada. with 22x11x8 12 paddle tripple buff haulers. I will be running a 42 tooth rear, and I cant decide between a 15t or a 17t. Will the 17t be too much? I was running 15/41 on a 55 horse 420 and I could spin the 12 paddles just fine, so I'm thinking I can pull the 17t, but I'm not sure. Any experience/imput? Thanks. Quote
9603banshee Posted June 6, 2006 Report Posted June 6, 2006 15-42 or a 15-43......If you go with anything over a 15 front, you will NOT be able to run a normal case saver......This is for recreational duning/dragging right?? Quote
dajogejr Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 17 will be too much for the sand. It depends on if it's fluffy dry sand or wet sticky sand.... 14 and 15 would be nice to bring.... I think 16 or 17 would be too much unless you're on hardpack or ashphalt.... Quote

wesw Posted June 13, 2006 Report Posted June 13, 2006 depends on what gear you plan to start out in. Quote
