Hey guys i do mainly trailriding, I was wondering what you would recommend for different size sprockets? Its on a 300ex. I guess i would want a little more speed more the better.. I wanna see what you recommend..

if you go 1 tooth bigger in the front you will gain maybe 1-3 mph uptop but loose a little low end torque if that isnt enough go 2 smaller in the rear that can possibly give you 10mph faster but you will slower off the line i would try the 1 tooth bigger in the front and go from there

a good guideline to go by is 1 tooth in front is equal to 3 teeth in the rear. stock gearing is best on a 300ex for trail riding, especially if you want all the speed you can get. if you gear it much taller, it wont be adequate for trail riding and you will constantly be riding the clutch. try +1 tooth on the front sprocket, then if you like that, go -3 on the rear
