Banshee_19 Posted September 29, 2006 Report Posted September 29, 2006 What I did when I went to a 22" tire was drop my front procket size from 14 to 13 so now my gearing is 13/41 and it works great for what I useit for which is trails. Sure you will loose on the top speed but you will gain on the bottom to help turn the 22's Quote
nicktoney Posted September 29, 2006 Author Report Posted September 29, 2006 is 41 stock back? i heard if you drop one up front, its equal to 3 in the rear? do you lose a shitton of top end?

About 7 MPH or so.... http://home.earthlink.net/~gellett/banshee.htm I'd go 3 bigger in the rear, personally.... Quote
