Road Bike Gear Combinations
It is a triban rc120 with disc cable brakes.
Road bike gear combinations. I have two questions are there gear chainring combinations that i cannot. In other words some gear combinations will result in the same ratio as others using a different sprocket and chainring. This is a great gear for climbing. Thus 53 x 12t yields 9 28 meters of roll out for a road bike fitted with 25c tyres compared to 3 28 meters for 39 x 25t.
The only combinations i avoid are the biggest to biggest and smallest to smallest like you said. Carey gregory apr 23 14 at 3 56. 3 is green 2 3 blue and below 2 red. Here are three good gear choices to use.
For example 53 19 is the same gear as 39 14. After removing the redundant gear combinations. Using these combinations will make for smooth gear changes. Colors group similar values.
I recently got a new road bike. I ride a 3x9 road bike and a 3x10 mtb. A really beginners one which is what i am. If i m on the big ring and need a lower gear i do it.
Your bike will work in any combination of front and rear gear but using the right combinations will feel beautifully smooth.
