Bicycle Engine Sprocket Guide

We have several rear sprocket options available for our customers to “fine tune” their gas operated bicycle to achieve their desired optimal speed/power gear ratio.

A note to remember: The larger the rear sprocket, the slower the bike will go, but will have power to climb hills. The smaller the rear sprocket, the faster the bike will go, but will climb hills less effectively. You are trading power for speed or vice versa.

We offer sizes of 36 tooth, 44 tooth, 48 tooth, and 56 tooth sprockets in the Large 9-hole gear. The inner diameter is 1.4", hole spacing is 1". See table below for specifications. Commonly, the large 9-hole sprocket with 48 tooth configuration will come with the 4G T-Belt Drive 4-stroke engine kit.
