What's your favourite gear ratio?

48x18 (72") fixed suits me fine around west london/heathrow.

My gear calculator says that 48x18 is 70"...?

aside from that I want to drop it to about 65" thinking of changing the chainring to a 42 so that I don't have to go any larger at the back and have more lattitude to change gearing later. A 42t seems more user friendly.

I mainly ride 48 x 18, but I also ride 49 x 19 or 47 x 18. All around the 69" to 72" mark.

for a single speed or fixed anywhere between 75 and 82 gear" is fine by me
but if its a geared bike it has to go up to atleast 100 inches cant stand not going 40mph down a steep hill or dodging traffic at 30

I used to ride 52/16 when I was using brakes on my first bike, do miss the speed! Currently riding 47/18 on my vivalo, thinking about dropping the sprocket to a 17t though.

I like to spin, so about 80 inches for me.

spin= 80 inches?

no, spin is below 70.

maybe for you :D

Was riding 46/14 in flat un-congested west sussex but then moved to london and now ride 46/16

51-22 ftw

All of the gears

46/18 = 69 - I like it.

think im going up to 46/17 might go up to 19tooth at the back though

ive been using 52-21 for the last week, i have to say i like it alot more than the old 52-18 ive always used.

my mates on 51 22 i think and he loves it

42x15 for getting to work, 42x17 (not got yet, currently 16) for tricks.

ha!

i like to spin too, but it's about 62 inches for me!

ooo ooo i know the answer.... its the one that gets me from A to B (whatever those 2 locations are) as comfortably as possible.

what do i win?

A dildo and some slippers, if you don't like the slippers, you can go fuck yourself.

And a 1st place certificate.

woo hoo!

when i woke up this morning with missus' finger in my arse i realised that in may be time to join the ranks of a new fashion, as the sheer numbers deem it to no longer be a niche to convey my individuality. I've considered the possibilities of speedway or recumbents. Any further ideas gentlemen???
