I guess what I meant to imply is that at the top end there is a 2% difference
b/t a 49t and a 50t cog. I cannot recall where I read it, but there was some
stat saying that the actual rider time/use of smallest cog (10t for SRAM or
even 9t for the E13) was very low. I know personally I do not use it that much
as the bulk of my wear occurs in the middle to largest one third of the gear
range. My question is while it would seem that a jump of 3 teeth (46 to 49)
would be smoother than one of seven (42 to 49), the folks at Wolf Tooth have
echoed your statement.
