Personally, I consider the QPD ratio to be under geared & would be far happier with a 2.5:1, as opposed to the 2.33:1 on offer.



Please, oh puh-leez don't hate me for opening this can of worms up again but I sent Bob "Ozzie" Oswald, proprietor of QPD an email about 3 weeks ago asking him about the ratio of his pulley set. The following is the reply he sent.

I can give you a 2.46:1 which is a 24/59 or a 25/59 that is 2.36:1 I need to remind you that the lower the no.the higher the ratio ( top end ) also there is so much difference between a chain and a belt that you can cruise in top gear with a lower rpm with a belt, that you can not with a chain. I hope this is of some help.
