Default Re: Eliminating the driven sprocket

I would assume you are using the method Pablo is using. I would use the smaller chain-wheel to drive the rear wheel and the larger one to feed from the engine. I would think a 14 tooth would be a good start. There is a sprocket calculator on the net, I think you can Google it. Have fun, Dave
PS: I put a pic of an early Indian to get an idea of the sprocket sizes, remember you have a reduction off the crank first, then the output.
