Managing to get that STOOPID hub adapter from BikeBerry to work, I'm able to compare the difference between riding with a 36 and 48 tooth sprocket.
I found the 36 tooth to have a much smoother power delivery. The ratio means the engine never quite runs out of puff, which means you can crack on at speeds where the engine tops out on the standard 44 tooth, without the crazy vibrations of high engine speeds.
The 48 tooth sprocket was better suited for the hilly areas I ride in. The extra torque really brings the bike alive and the quicker acceleration is super addictive. I didn't find I lost much in the top speed compared to the 44 tooth, but the higher torque makes it easier to cruise at speeds closer to top.
HOWEVER! The rubbish quality of BikeBerry's BBR Tuning Nexus Hub Adapter caused problems still, causing me to come to a screeching halt in the middle of the forest when it spat the bolts out of the sprocket at about 45 km/h!
In my next video, I'll make my repairs and savagely put the Mk4 bike through its paces on the 48 tooth sprocket, the ratio which is by far my favourite!
