Default

1 degree per .012" according to Endyn. I took about .030" off of my combination and adjusted my gears 3 crank degrees to compensate.

So will I need to get adjustable gears? or do I not have to worry about it?

cool sounds great. I will try it without the adjustable but if it starts acting up then I will have to buy some.
