Interested in how a mild steel double-sided sprocket chain wheel gear is made? This video takes you through the detailed process, from shaping the steel to precision engineering of the sprocket.
A bike's maximum gear ratio is a combination of the size of the chainring and the smallest sprocket on the cassette at the rear. A 62 x 11 combination is 150 gear inches – an estimate of how far ...
If a high-speed sprocket is called for, smaller diameter fittings are installed, but expect a matching reduction in torque, too. Gearing ratio formula: Gear Ratio = Number of teeth on driven ...
While automatic and manual transmissions have a set number of gear ratios that the transmissions select depending on speed and RPM, CVTs aren't limited to a fixed number of gears. Instead ...
I was checking out possible fixes to make the bike more tractable and read about changing the sprockets to alter the gear ratios. The basic rule of Thumb is: More teeth in the Rear (or) Fewer teeth at ...
Cast your mind back to pushbikes and Derailleur gears: if you were privileged enough to have two cogs at the front, five at the back and a chain linking any combination of those sprockets together - ...
