I'm using 23-9t on my DMR Transition 24 that I use for trail and I like it a lot of course I have to pedal more to go fast but its a bit easier to pedal on the start !

I use the Demolition M5 23 T that I bought from ebay real cheap !!!

Remember: ratios with 20 inch wheels are gonna be different than 24's.

21 / 9. X. 24 wheels = 56
25 / 9. X. 20 wheels = 55.5

Almost the same "gear inches"

i find 28-9 the best as you can really go fast with less pedals and i love that

its pretty n-word. like riding 25/10. a bit easier, you wont notice it. just go for it.
