[rob]

Hi, has anyone seen a setup like on www.steppebysteppe.com.au

i'm curious about getting schlumpf mountain drive to use with a
rohloff speedhud but worried about the torque issues when loaded up on
a steep incline, as i am making a similar vehical to them

thanks

Well, I guess I won't find out what that's all about from that website.
That rates as one of the most badly written sites I've seen.

Just out of curiosity, are you looking for more top end or more
bottom end? I'm running a 38-tooth chainwheel that had me spun
out at about 25 mph and can climb just about anything in low
gear. I can see wanting smaller diffs between some of the
higher gears, but can't figure out where more range comes in.
