Cadence - chain/belt comparison

Configuration of the drivetrain for Pinion models: ST3 / ST5 / ST7

Cadence chain vs belt

Pinion: On the ST3 with the Pinion C1.9 XT, this configuration results in a gear ratio of 0.32 in the highest gear, a Unfolding of 12.3 m and a cadence/cadence of only 62 crank revolutions per minute at 45 km/h.

Chain: The Stromer ST3 / ST5 with derailleur gears require 72 rpm in the highest gear, the ST2 with 26″ tires even 79.5!

See more details under SCHALTUNG - PINION - 'Gearbox specification - comparison with derailleur gears'

Can the cadence or gear ratio be changed?
