32t or 36t
Hey All, I'm planning on getting a either a 32 t or 36t sprocket for my bike.. I'm using the stock 44t right now..
Will the speed gain be great?
32t or 36t?
i really got no hills here in singapore so i guess it should not be a problem for me..

not sure where it is now, but someone has done the math re: speed/sprocket ratio, but the standard accepted gig is a 44t you'll top out around 30mph, and for each tooth less, add up to one mph. so a 36t should pull you at 37 to 38, provided you have the power. i run a 36t on my racer and it does in fact do a little over 40, but thats with engine mods

Don't be surprised if your top speed actually does down like on some of my bikes. It's the smooth cruise that's really nice.
That being said I'd like to find low cost 32t to take advantage of the low end torque with my new tuned pipe.

DEFINITELY 36t. I had to run my tuned pipe bike with 44t yesterday due to broken spokes on the 36t and it was ridiculous revving at cruise. I'm wishing I had 32t but not for speed.
Like I said don't be surprised if you end up with lower speed at WOT with either of these. Smaller sprocket does not always result in higher top speed.

Re: 32t or 36t
Unless you are under 175 lbs. or so, I'd go for the 36T, especially if you are planning on adding a tuned pipe.

Re: 32t or 36t
I am 210 lbs and a 32 tooth rocks! This is on a 66cc slant head.
From a dead stop just peadal a little and let out the clutch and it will scream.
Top speed, a 32 is faster than a 36.
