Gearing for Lydden

Post by wes »

Hi,

I am looking to see if anyone can offer advice for gearing for Lydden.

The bike makes about 70hp

Thanks in advance

Depends on what rev limit you use. I would go for either Brands Indy, or Snett gearing. You'll be dancing on the gearbox a bit with Brands Indy, with Snett you'll only need to use up to 4th, not having to change whilst leant over around Chessons(or whatever it is) and just carrying 3rd down to Paddock(1st corner) using 3rd for Paddock. My Snett gearing was 15/46 IIRC. Good Luck :smt001
