locogato11283 Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 we need to know what gearing you are running. i used to run 12/41 gearing and i would climb pretty much any hill in 3rd. that was with toomey t5s. they pulled hard on the top, but i was geared low enuf to pull 3rd when going slow.

xt45 Posted March 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 It is a stock shee, I am not sure of what gearing it is. The hill is about 300 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xt45 Posted March 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Let us assume you do not want to shift, just stick with one gear I would say the third gear, what do you say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
