...k, hopefully I can ask this w/o sounding like a wicked tool. But I would think that a 22 is larger than a 20...is this not true? If I understand, you are referring to the tooth count...yes?
...so 44t chainring and 28t-22t-16t cog? 28-22 is not too big of a jump? Is there anything special I need to do to the standard 7-8-9 speed derailler to set it up for the 3 speeds?
Thanks again!
Thanks for the ratio...that is what I needed. However, I have a possible lock on a used 44t Race Face crank. What would you pair w/ that in the back? And does the spacing of the cogs depend on their independent sizes or chain line?
I just realized...how many threads start off in the...
I read that IGh's are not great off-road unless you drop a couple grand...true?
I guess I should have mentioned that I have a limited budget...plus the threat of the bike being stolen is imminent! I would hate to spend hundreds of dollars on a bike to have it stolen.
thx for the...
thanks geek and everyone for their help...after heavy consideration and common sense, I realized that what I wanted to achieve would be next to impossible w/o some chain line issues!
Going to just run one chain ring and 3 cogs in the back. Anyone have any solid ratios for a commuter/trail...
I commute by train in Atlanta...at the end of my train ride, I still have a 5 mile hump to work. I want to do this conversion to keep my bike as simple as possible and still have variable speeds. SS for the trail, variable for commuting. Triple at the crank and SS at the hub seemed simple...
I want to convert my bike to a single speed at the hub, but keep the 3-speeds at the crank...is this possible?
The problem I foresee is keeping tension on the chain.
Does anyone know of a product I can obtain that will solve this issue?
Thanks in advance for any advice...
