Okay, I've got the stock 14T front and 42T rear. I swapped over to 17" SM wheels and was wondering what I would need to do in order to get my bike back as close to stock gearing as possible. Should I get a 15T or 16T for the front? Or should I drop a few teeth in the rear? I'd like to be able to use the stock chain but I wouldn't mind buying a new chain if I really had to.

This bike is now my main mode of transportation since my Jeep eats up too much gas and I work far from home; therefore, I must ride it on the freeway and the low gear ratio isn't too much fun on Interstate 5.

 

Anyone know?

 

The D-Tracker runs 14/39. I assume that would bring it back to approx the same revs vs speed. You could try a 15 front which would get you around the same affect. Cheaper and you should be able to use the OEM chain

 

Thanks a bunch Maverick.

Any other suggestions?

 

Not sure what else you want to know?
