:shock: I don’t know where you got that from but can I suggest you’re overthinking this?High gear + low revs for a chosen speed reduces wheelspin.
Low gear + higher revs you will need for a chosen speed = greater risk of wheelspin. It’s that simple!
Juddian summed it up really - I chose 3rd because I figured I could spin, lose a bit of speed but not have to change gear when it gripped again.
Overthinking? Moi?!
