3. GEAR RATIO TABLES

There are several opti onal gear cogs available enabling you to tailor your ‘Cyclone 5 Speed’ gearbox exactly to your requirements. There are currently two opti onal gear cogs available for 1st gear and three opti onal gear cogs available for 5th gear. Upon request, other gear cogs can be manufactured if required.

The choice of which gears to use is a personal one but the ‘Cyclone 5 Speed’ gearbox in its standard form should suit most needs. The im-portant factor to consider is the 5th gear rati o. We have found that in most cases, a slightly longer top gear (i.e. a lower rati o number) can be used compared to what your scooter is currently running. Example: if your scooter is currently fi tt ed with standard TV175 / SX200 gearing, giving a 4th gear rati o of 4.80 – 1 with 15 x 46 sprock-ets, then your ideal set-up would be the standard ‘Cyclone 5 Speed’ kit used in conjuncti on with 19 x 46 sprockets and an 82 link chain (this is the standard GP200 chain). This will give you an overall 5th gear rati o of 4.72 – 1. This rati o is slightly longer than the SX200 4 speed gearing you previously had. The scooter should easily be able to pull that rati o as the Cyclone gears are so close that the scooter doesn’t drop out of the power band. Therefore the longer 5th gear rati o doesn’t present a problem.

There is litt le point listi ng all the thousands of possible 4 speed gear-box & sprocket combinati ons as the variati ons are endless. It makes more sense to visit the excellent site: www.tonycassidy.com where you can fi nd nigh on every possible Lambrett a gearbox, with all the related info on fi nal drive opti ons using various sprockets etc.

The only thing that is worth adding are these simple formulae for working out your current 4 speed fi nal drive rati os:

Final Drive Rati o = Gearbox Rati o x Sprocket Rati oGearbox rati o = driven gear (loose 4th gear - the smallest one) drive gear (teeth machined on gear cluster - the biggest one)

So for 4th gear on a SX200 4th gear rati o = 33T = 1.57 21T

The Sprocket (primary transmission) rati o is calculated this way: Sprocket rati o = rear sprocket front sprocket

For SX200 this would be: Primary drive rati o = 46T = 3.07 15T

Final Drive Rati o (SX200) = Gearbox Rati o (1.57) x Sprocket Rati o (3.07) = 4.8:1

Once you know this, you can decide which sprocket & chain combina-ti on to use with your ‘Cyclone 5 Speed’ gearbox. As previously stated, the vast majority of Lambrett as will be fi ne with the Standard kit and 18T x 47T (giving a 4.92: 1 fi nal, 5th gear rati o which is slightly longer than a std. GP200) or 19T x 46T (giving a 4.70: 1 fi nal, 5th gear rati o which is slightly longer than a std. SX200) sprocket combinati ons. How-ever, due to the current vogue of very torquey Lambrett as, capable of pulling 4.4:1 and 4.5:1 top gear rati os, we have listed all the possible opti ons, along with chains needed to use the desired sprocket set-ups.

One last thing worth noti ng is that most current producti on front sprock-ets are Indian made and do not run concentrically (i.e. they’re not even round!). This can cause endless problems from increase in vibrati on lev-els to wearing out bearings, cranks, chain guides and clutch sprockets in double quick ti me. As such, at the ti me of writi ng (September 2012) we

have asked DRT Denis to produce a range of high quality 19T, 20T and 21T front sprockets and these will be available shortly.

Cyclone Gear Tables & Final Drive Rati o Selecti on

The ‘Cyclone 5 Speed’ gearbox currently in producti on is Version 2 which is identi fi ed by having 9-teeth machined for 1st gear on the clus-ter. If your gear cluster has 10-teeth for 1st gear then you have Version 1 and you can fi nd the data for that in Secti on 10.
