    MOTORS AND GEARING The XXX-T MF2 includes an 86-tooth, 48-pitch Kevlar spur gear. The overall internal drive ratio of the transmission is 2.56:1. The pinion gear that is used will determine the final drive ratio. To calculate the final drive ratio, first divide the spur gear size by the pinion gear size. For example, if you are using a 18-tooth pinion gear, you would divide 86 (spur gear size) by 18 (pinion gear size) 86/18=4.78.
