I think 24/25 is about right in the B3. Maybe a little higher with a 10.5. I use to run a 7.5 on a 24 and that seemed about right for me.

9t maybe 22?

Ray you have a Cat SX... 22 for outdoors. 19/20 at ludlow

thanks

does it matter which brand all i see on ebay is hpi or tamiya - i guess as long as pitch is right and they are made from a durable alloy should be okay?

are the hollow ones any different to the solid ones as some seem to have some weight saving and appear hollow on the outside of the gear

cheers!
