you have to check i think the district id euro but it might have a mid bottom bracket take it to someone who knoes before you buy annything and as for a gear ratio 28:13 is great i love it it is great for traveling places and it good for dj all though i haven rode much dj on 13:28 but the little i did i really liked it

hope this helps

I'll be putting 28:13 onto my NS B*tch after Christmas. It was recommended somewhere as a good slopestyle gear. Much of my riding isn't that big, but does generally have downhill approaches to the first transition, and dropping into the park doesn't take much for pedaling. Currently riding 32:16, which is pretty easy to get moving. If I don't like 28:13, I'll throw a 14t on the back and then possibly try 25:12. Just looking at the numbers and thinking about how the gearing feels on my AM bike, I think a 28:13 will be pretty dang good.
