  • Yes, but it just sounds like you need to practice. I ride 42/16 and can skid quite easily.

    I really don't think gear ratio is as important as technique, although it's definitely easier to learn on a low ratio. I learned on an easiesh gear in the wet to get the hang of it, but now it's easy enough to skid from the saddle, regardless of traction/gear (within reason). Having the right technique provides you with very good leverage.
