Intricacies of Bicycle Gear Range and Ratio

Image
Designing the Optimum Drivetrain on Your Bicycle What's the lowest available gear? What's the highest available gear? How much of a difference is there between each available gear? Is the bike geared correctly for the specific rider, environment, etc? We usually don't describe bikes as "24 speed" anymore. We would typically say what kind of front and rear gearing the bike has. For example, a "24 speed" bike could be a 3x8 (fairly old technology) or a 2x12 (extremely modern technology.) The highest and lowest definitely effect how fast the bike goes. If you need lower gearing than you have available, it can be hard and slow to climb hills. Worst case, you might not even make it up the hill. The highest gear you have won't usually affect your speed on flat ground, but can limit how fast you go down hills. Though there are some cases like a 3 speed internal gear hub bike, where the top gear might be a limit even on level pavement. Gear shift ratios are ...

Hot Wax Your Bicycle Chain

Image
The best hot or immersive chain waxes will produce some of the lowest chain wear rates and will increase the number of miles you can cover for a single application. As well as provide excellent drivetrain efficiency and a pretty much spotless drivetrain.  Lubricating a chain using hot melt wax is the benefits can be excellent. Waxing a chain ensures each metal surface of a chain such as the link plates, rollers, bushings and pins are covered in a layer of hard wax. This means there is minimal or no metal-to-metal contact and abrasion which is what wears chains out, accelerated by contamination such as dirt and dust.  Though plenty of people wax their chains already. We often hear that it is too much hassle, or a little excessive, or over the top. Changing your cleaning regime and switching to waxing may require some initial investment and effort to learn a new process, but it's something you should at least consider if you want to achieve some of the best drivetrain performan...
