I want to get a bit more on top speed but don't want to loose to much power (when wind blows from front, I don't want to gear down to 2nd :imaposer:)
I have standard front sprocket and 43 teeth in the rear. Can I go to 41 teeth rear or will that be to much (loose power at top speed)?
I know 1st gear will be a bit long but I will get around that problem.
Any suggestions?
