    To give you an idea of how the ratios come out in the wash. There's about a 1-2 mph difference between the two ratios in each gear.

    Are you sure about that, there's about 500rpm of difference at 70 in 5th

    I suppose if I drop to 2900rpm it would be about 60 so yeah. But I would say between 2-3mph
