Unfortunately I didnt have time to try it out. Ill let you know how I like it tomorrow. What should I expect? I hope I dont lose a lot on top.

Makes it a little more torque-ie(new word). You might loose a little top end, I mostly ride mountains and sand so I was willing to loose a little on top to gain some zip for climbing

With the 12 tooth 1st is a real quick shift, if you ever happen to go with 22's on rear, switch to a 42 tooth on the rear, will bring it back to the original gearing accomplished with the 12/40 combo.
