    If you have a smaller wheeled folding bike, recumbent or a trike then the 48T or 52T is probably the way to go. This is assuming that you have a normal rear cassette that goes from about 11T-36T.

    If you are using a 3-speed IGH and have an odd sized cog then all bets are off. I like using the Nexus-3 with a 18T rear cog and a 30T front chainring for trail riding, but it tops out at around 25mph. If you want high top speed then go with a bigger chainring, for more torque and wheelie popping power then go for the lower tooth chainrings.

    If and when you order this chainring you should be aware that the BBS02 and the BBSHD have completely different hole patterns and are NOT compatible. Make sure you get the chainring that matches your drive unit. It’s important to pick the right size chainring for the application you’re using it for...
