My bike has 24 and 34 sprockets for the pedals, and 24, 21, 18, 15, and 12 for the rear wheel. Which gear ratio gives me more speed--24 linked to 12 or 34 linked to 24?



 ANSWER: 24 linked to 12! Here, the smaller the MA, the greater the speed. 12/24 = 0.50, and 24/34 = 0.71 Also, the larger the front to rear gear ratio, the larger the speed: 24/12=2, while 34/24 is less than 2!
