Watch that sprocket. I've heard of a lot of Medusa's bending or even tacoing just from pedaling.

Oh alright. Get something that's at least 7075 aluminum, 7075-T6 is even better.

i was thinking about going like 28/10 or 30/11, but almost all the freecoasters out there nowadays are only in 9t. and im just lazy. but i think there might be an 11t driver available for the alienation hubs. either way im just too lazy to look around too hard.

I was also thinking that, as I mainly ride it around the track during practice time/intermission/after race and in the park. There's no street around me really. The rollout on that like 67.

These are for 2.1" tires.
25/9 - 55.6
26/9 - 57.8
27/9 - 60
28/9 - 62.2

I got a gear chart from Dan's and it makes it really easy.
