Just finished a T4 not happy with first gear it’s way to tall and with hills where I live Ill burn out the clutch. I used a 2016 Stelivo 1200 cc donor bike. The forward reverse transmission works great in reverse as its ratio is perfect . Wish forward was same as reverse ratio, anyone know if this transmission cans can be modified?
Thanks
Michael

You need the 15 inch rear wheel conversion from Triking. Its not cheap but will massively improve your car. Lowers the overall gearing and you can fit a car tyre which will be way better than a round profile bike tyre which drifts and follows every nuance of the tarmac. Also car tyres are way cheaper than bike tyres.
