Want faster take off or top speed? Below is a simplified explanation no math involved. If you need an example just take a look at your 10 speed bicycle or what ever speed you got. See which gear setup gives you good top speed and which gives better off the line acceleration.
Simply put it:
>Larger clutch sprocket powering smaller rear wheel sprocket and you get
more top speed
less torque
slow take-off
>Smaller clutch sprocket powering larger rear wheel sprocket and you get
less top speed
more torque
fast take-off
