Re: gear ratios
What kind of bearings do u use for the drive train?
I need to hav a bearing that can be inserted in the plate like S. Nickens
Also S. Nickens did u have to replace ur gearbox during competition, ive decided to use the gearbox in high with a 3.5:1 ratio w/ the chip.
Im not good w/ rpm, what would be the rpm of of the drive shaft so i can determine the speed, again thanks.

hehe, one last question, is there a way i can determine if the chain i use to connect 2 sprockets will not sag?
