The final drive ratio is typically the gear ratio for the differential, or the final location where the gearing is altered before being sent to the wheels. Changing the final drive ratio heavily impacts the way the car behaves. If you increase the final drive ratio, each gear will have greater wheel torque, while sacrificing top speed. If you decrease the final drive ratio, each gear will have a higher top speed, however deliver less torque. Raising the final drive ratio also means you'll be at

Your gear ratio is the difference in size between the chainring at the pedals and the cog in the cassette at the rear. Useful for working things out - like speed, or which ratios on a fixie won't result in you always doing skids on the same part of the tyre... #GCN #GCNTech #Maths #GearRatio | Global Cycling Network
