Re: Kitbot/cims/transmissions running too slow?

If i'm not mistaken

5 ft per sec /(6"*pi/12)*60sec/min = rpm of wheels = 191

191 rpm * 2.63 * 12.75 = 6404 rpm at the CIM

I'm not sure what you mean by counter shaft, but assuming you mean the pinion sprocket (is that the proper term?) the sprocket ratio is 28/21, you have

191 rpm * 28/21 * 12.75 = 3247 rpm at the CIM

which is it?
