So, taking a look at the sprockets on my rat, and finding that I'm glad I did, the PO hadn't bolted two of the nuts up, they were close to the end of the studs and could have caught on something
The PO had put a new 'O' ring chain and sprocket set on, all looks good quality, but the sprockets were 13/39.
I did some maths, and just by dividing the bigger by the smaller I came up with this :
14 / 45 = 3.2
14 / 43 = 3.07
15 / 45 = 3
13 / 39 = 3
15 / 43 = 2.86
