Bike Gearing Techniques

To achieve swifter acceleration, consider employing lower gearing, which will shorten each gear and necessitate quicker shifts through the gears. Opt for a smaller front sprocket (countershaft) or a larger rear sprocket. Notably, altering one tooth on the front sprocket is tantamount to modifying three teeth on the rear sprocket.

Front Sprockets

China Pit bikes are equipped with two distinct types of front sprockets, also known as countershaft sprockets. The majority of pit bikes utilize a standard or smaller shaft, measuring 17mm/14mm. This specification is common among various models, including:

Understanding Camshaft Gear Ratios

In a 4-stroke engine, the gear ratio between the crankshaft and the camshaft is invariably 21 ratio is crucial for the engine's proper functioning.
