Hi Tim The letter "B" does not mean anything to me and I think it is going to be trial and error It is a one start pitch required. I have just read an old post on this forum dated 11/29/12 heading------???? Ain' t life fun when the brain slows down?? Fun with numbers and gear sets These are what gears I have 240-38 2x 180-120 .25 180-? .5 180-/ ? Which do you think is "B" gear?? *I copied and pasted the **Fun with Numbers and the Gear Sets *and since then I have larger print and can't seem to change it. More problems to solve !! Any way thanks for the quick reply. Richard
