Anyone used GP150 box with 17/46 to get 5.0 FD

5.0 is the recommended, this over an LI 150 with 16/47 which I don't have...

Ive got all the parts and wanted to use them up

Just wondered what it would be like through the gears...

Cheers

I used that gearing on a home tuned 175 i built a few years back. It was acceptable and nothing more.

That was with a bgm v3 clubman.

I swapped the pipe for an old expansion that mick Abbey had lying around and it became almost unusable. The big jump from 3 to 4 was too much unless going downhill with a tailwind
