Gearing Explained

I have just added a page on gearing. Because the Sofrider and Freerider have a single chainwheel, many assume that this means a narrow range of gears. Not so! Using an 11-34 megarange rear cluster gives gearing comparable to a road bike which is more what you need. MTB converted cruzbikes typically have a rusty small front chainwheel and lack top end gearing. The Sofrider and Freerider gearing rectifies this. You can read the new page here.
