I have no clue what it is about the 108" gear (52 x 13), but it feels just right in the flying 200, and now I have discovered that it works for the Kilo. It defies all logic, but it works for me. Of course I would never use a gear like this in mass start events, it is just too big to continuously wind up and slow down.
