Find out what your standard gearing is and go down 2 teeth on the rear sprocket. This will increase your top speed which I guess is what you want.

I assume you're on a wee bike, a 125 or maybe a 50?

Top speed is always going to be bilge. I've got a 125 at the moment, went down two teeth on the front sprocket, top speed is shite but its so much more lively through town.

I had 17 teeth on the front (standard size I think) and it was ok. Top speed 65 with a tail wind maybe 70 going down a (very steep) hill (or off a cliff.) But it was so slow off the traffic lights, I got owned by an Iveco Van! Crying or Very sad

Swapped out the front Sprocket and its made a huge difference. (As long as its not raining, I have a moisture issue) I can beat most things off lights except bigger bikes.

Its good fun again. Thumbs Up

*Edit: Only had 70mph once, I had a very strong tailwind... Even 65 is a vague hope based upon atmospheric conditions...*

That's just ridiculous!

It should 35 front and 7 rear.
Powerband should be red for one of those bikes.

Oh, hang on, what bike is it??

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.
