I like to climb fast and don't mind losing a little top end on the flats. Instead of a 2nd gear climb I would prefer to go up in 3rd. What combo do you guys run and what size chain to match?

 

Are you stock, what gears are you running now, what kind and size tires are you running and what are you climbing?

 

you probably just need to drop one tooth on front...

 

Right now they are stock sizes 13/40 I have 20" Holeshots and I'm not a "hillclimber" I would just prefer to climb everything a gear higher. I went to Glamis this past weekend and my bike just wasn't climbing everything as quick as I think it should. This is the first step. Thanks for responding.

 

12/42 should have you pulling the next gear up hard.

 

That's what I was thinking but I would like to hear from more people. Thanks

 

i run 13-44 and can pull sand mtn utah in 3rd and sometimes 4th

 

i prefer to run this ratio because with a 12 on the front the motor has to wok harder

 

I just went to the 12/42, go find wshrdskn, he has run the 12/42 for a while and help convince me

 

Punker- You just as well change the chain while your doing it. THe stock size is ok, you should have plenty of adjustment.

Banrap- Did you have to change chain sizes?
