I belive the smaller tire will give you more bottem end and you will lose top end but i may be wrong.

That's correct.

Putting on a smaller back tire reduces your top speed but increases your acceleration. Same net effect of going to a smaller front sprocket or larger back sprocket.

need ne one answer a question like that common sence, but any way i put it this way the biger the tire the lager the circumference right. so if you go 1 rvolution you cover that much ground. so if you put a smaller tire on you will cover less groung per revolution. less speed at same rpm, so more bottom end. the best way to think about this would be to totaly over exadurate it really huge tire and really small tire, that makes it easy to comprehend
