Hello
I am currently running the Talon 17t offset sprocket and 39t rear but want lower gearing, say 15/39 or lower. Can't find 15t offset sprocket, could 44t+ rear be an option? Will likely need a longer chain. Or cut and weld together an old stock sprocket to a 15t I already have
Thanks, H

I'm running 17/41 with a 17 inch wheel
I wouldn't go lower
115 on the rev limiter in top
If you go to 44t it will be 8 - 9000 rpm sitting on the motorway

With current setup I hit 75 in 2nd, and I liked the shorter gearing with 15t Edit: Where I live maximum speed limit is 90km/h, around 55mph Edit edit: 62 in 2nd is more like it🙃 |

What swinger do you have as a smaller front sprocket may cause interference issues?
A larger rear has the benefit to do the opposite and take the chain run away from the swinger.
I'll check my hybrid gearing as it feels about right, but I am running a 17T front.
