RE: Rear Gears

sounds shibby!!!! do u have to start off in 2nd gear though? i would think that first gear would be almost non-existant because u would have to shift it right away from a dead stop.. right?

RE: Rear Gears

First gear is short, but still very useable.

I barely ever start off in second...
In first gear I usually switch gears around 20-25MPH
