Just a word, I don't know what your wife prefers, if torque of the line or speed down the line or basically around town riding . . .

Some would prefer to add to the rear sprocket while most go to 14 on the front sprocket . . . I am riding a 14/48, top speed is gone, but, around town, great . . . 15/48 was OK but, I was working 2nd-3rd way to much for nothing around the city, now, is just 3rd . . . check this out, http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/jtchain/hbund/jtchain.html

Ha Ha!  Funny you should show that.  I ordered a pile of parts from Jeff on Monday to include that sprocket combo (they should be here tomorrow).  I also got the tail chop package   Grin

As far as teeth I went with what I like on mine, 14/48 as well  waytogo

A box of Monster Parts goodness was on my front door when I got home from work!

This weekend I plan to chop the tail, install the MotoDynamics integrated tail light, install sprockets and chain, dye the sprocket and belt covers, de-sticker the frame, and do some deep cleaning. 

Oh and I'm sure a couple beers will be consumed during all this....I better hold off prior to cutting the frame though.  drink

Ever since I saw Izzak's "Filter Forensics" thread I can only buy Hi-Flo's.

If you like, I wasn't sure when I started it.  I will be adding quite a bit more to it.

Thanks
