loose unit, do u find that ur 38tooth is too small or big for dirtjumping? i reakon 36 would be pretty perfect for djinglooseunit said:I run 38 royal chainring on freeride HT with a 32-11 cluster. I find it the perfect size for juat about everthing esp DJ.
Thanx for that correction, 12-25 is correct, just a typo thereTy said:4 speed DA cassette? i think 12-25 is more realisticbikeman_baldrik said:I run a Blackspire 38 tooth chain ring with a Shimano Dura-Ace road 12-15 tooth cassette and Dura-Ace rear mech. I think this is perfect for all round riding, high enough to go up, and low enough to go fast.
Before getting the 38 i was worried that it would be to small for DJ and general riding, but it is perfect. I have tried to use a 24 before and found it far to low dont know about a 36. If i was running a freeride bike and riding up hill i would run a 34-11 with a chain guide and 38t, lets face it the granny ring on most bikes is only a bail out gear. I find it the perfect spread of gears on everthing apart from DH.loose unit, do u find that ur 38tooth is too small or big for dirtjumping? i reakon 36 would be pretty perfect for djing
