SP4 gearing query..

Hi guys

Do any of you SP4 owners have experience with the Strada too? If so, what can you tell me about the differences in gearing? My own SP is running a 15T front sprocket paired with a very small 36T rear. As a result, 1st gear feels very tall for the street (it's practically as tall as second gear on the Strada) yet it is still revving higher than the Strada at any comparable speed in 6th gear! This suggests an extremelyclose ratio gearbox.

(I know that the SPs were fitted with closer ratio 'boxes as standard - but with regard to the very tall final drive ratio mentioned above, does this seem at all abnormal..?)

Cheers
Steve
