question about sprockets for 4 stroke engine

Take it from someone who has tried even more. I have to agree with bubbatgs on this one. 50t takes much more peddling from starts to hills. The 56t at full RPM is more like
30MPH, cruses very well at 20MPH. The 12,000mi club HS Grubee.
 
That's weird. I'm the only one running a 36t and it still pulls me up hills pretty well, goes from a stop and seems kind of slow. I wouldn't even think of having more teeth.

I think we are talking about grubee gearboxes. Hoot's have different ratio, come stock with a 50T and around 25mph top speed.

We need to be talking about the same GB or it's a bit pointless. There is no way the 56T sprocket with 11T final drive on a Grubee Mark 2 or 3 GB will do 30mph on the level with the HS motor. It just doesn't happen. More like 25 mph maybe 28 mph absolute max. The 48T will get to about 31 mph with the HS and about 33mph with the Honda. This is just how it is.
