I like the gearing for what I do. I normally ride trails, but they are not too tight, so I keep it around the top of third or mid of fourth gear. I do find that the front end does not come up as easily, but ohh well, when I wanna wheelie, I can do it w/o standing. Also, what kind of axle are you running?? I just ordered a Durablue Eliminator, but I heard the break easily. I am not going to be jumping that high so I dont think that would be an issue, I just wanted better Handling. One more question, what type of bearing carrier are you running?!

i have dura blue eliminators on both my mojaves. We jump alot and ride hard and have never bent or broken one. However Dura blue is having to warrenty one of them because it twisted at the splines. I have already sent it to them. that is why none of my pics show the axle yet. the bearing carrier in the pics is a RAD Racing unit. They make both a double row and tapered type for the mo. Mine is a double row. I'm not sure that an aftermarket bearing carrier is the best way to spend your money. I have never really had a problem with a mojave stock carrier as long as the bearings are in good shape. the double row unit is really heavy since it has two extra bearings in it. The taper unit would be lighter but then you have to make sure you get the preload on the bearings right. That 220 bucks might be better spent on something else. Lurch has a highly modded mojave that he has been running for a while with a stock carrier and I don't believe he has had any problems.

you can make it +4 or +6. they call it a 2+2 which would be 4 inches wider but it is actually wider than that. with the spacer collars on the inside it is about 6 inches wider. outside of one rear tire to the other on mine is 49 inches.
