Does an 18t actually fit? I've got a 15/45 on there now. Looks like an 18T front will be tight?

Also I guess we are needing more bottom end with the gearing?

45 46 47 48
15 3.00 3.07 3.13 3.20

56.00 57.00 58.00 59.00
18 3.11 3.17 3.22 3.28

At your recommended sizes(18/57) we won't have as much top end. barely cracks 95 now...might be better out of corners though.
New to Road Racing so really asking...thanks. In MX I would have gone for a similar ratio but smaller sprockets to save additional weight. Lighter sprockets, less links of a chain, etc...
Thanks.
