Gah, did you actually read my post?

It's the exact opposite, shorter cranks mean you can accelerate quicker and spin faster, longer cranks make it easier to maintain speed.

Yes I did read your post, but as I was still trying to understand, I asked for clarification.

Also, I take it that what you said above was for the same Gain ratio like I was asking, or was it the same gearing for both crank lengths?

Oh, and thanks, for replying, kinda of getting confused by multiple points of view and trying to actually understand it.

So, if I want to increase my cadence a bit, but maintain my overall speed, I would calculate it so that my gain ratio remains the same for both crank lengths?
