### 5/5 — Best Bike Gear Calculator

*2022-08-09, version 2.0*

Best bike gear calculator

### 5/5 — Gear App

*2022-04-20, version 2.0*

Amazing App. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Gear Ratios app

*2022-03-25, version 2.0*

It’s very fascinating, it works very well.

### 5/5 — Just what the doctor ordered

*2022-01-11*

The cat's meow !  Love simplicity

### 5/5 — Just what’s needed

*2021-12-28*

When selecting drivetrains for new builds, this works much better than the standard web page calls.

### 5/5 — Excellent App!!

*2021-10-05, version 2.0*

A very useful app for calculating gears and especially handy for those of us who ride fixed a lot.

### 5/5 — Helps make choices for racing

*2021-09-09*

Where to spend money to upgrade our bikes is a constant dilemma.  This app shows the effects of making drivetrain changes before purchasing.  It resolves the old “is it worth it?”  
Easy to use and understand.

### 5/5 — simplicity!

*2021-03-12, version 2.0*

I built a single speed. I suddenly became aware that I had to find a gear ratio compromise between the flat road and the hill. I was recommended the app and I could understand gear ratio’s in a much clearer way than I did before. 
I even teach children about gear ratio’s, as part of my education role in Bristol where there are a lot of hills. 
I wonder if the trend of bike manufacturers towards a single ‘granny ring’ on the crank end and a ridiculous 55T cassette (that compares to the size of a dinner plate) would be a good way to bring the necessity of having access to different gear ratio’s home to the uninitiated?
Perhaps the current trend is just a cynical move by drivechain manufacturers to charge £100 for a new cassette? 
I also cycle on 7 speed road bikes with 11-23T as well as 8 and 9 speed mountain bikes 12-34T with triple chainrings 42/32/22. I just enjoy the experience and like variety. Thanks for developing this app. It’s so helpful.

### 5/5 — Useful tool easy to use.

*2021-03-01, version 2.0*

Go plot your gears.

### 5/5 — Gear calculator

*2021-02-25, version 2.0*

I’ve used this app to help with youth gears for several years. It’s fantastic.. we use it to calibrate rollers etc.
Get it..

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2020-11-12, version 2.0*

Good for planning.

### 5/5 — SRAM 52 tooth eagle cassette

*2020-09-07, version 2.0*

Great app. Pls update to accept edit to 52 tooth cassette from SRAM

### 5/5 — Good tool

*2020-07-14, version 2.0*

Always good to compare ratios and gear inches.

### 5/5 — Simple and works

*2020-07-11*

Not much to say other than it works well and tells your your gear ratios.

### 5/5 — Works for me.

*2020-07-10, version 2.0*

Helps with all that I need to know.

### 5/5 — Bike Gear

*2020-06-10, version 2.0*

Brilliant App! Quickly work out your gear ratios for proposed or existing sprocket/chainring combinations.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2024-06-21, version 2.0*

This app is a complete waste of time . 
What is the use of it ?

### 1/5 — Not a full fledged calculator.

*2019-10-16, version 2.0*

Does not do “European sizes” many inaccuracies.

### 2/5 — 52T support

*2023-12-12*

With 12 speed, cassettes tool simply must support up to a 52T in order to be fully useful.  Also, the jumps and tire sizes are too great. There’s quite a big difference between a 50 mm and a 56 mm tire for example.

### 3/5 — Simply awesome.

*2019-04-02, version 2.0*

Simple to use and understan.

### 3/5 — Limited usefulness

*2018-10-07, version 2.0*

Crank length option only goes to 192mm. Doesn’t help if you’re running 210’s.

### 3/5 — Useful but limited

*2018-06-08, version 1.3*

Shows a lot of information about a single gear, including gain ratio. Unfortunately, max crank length is 192.5, which limits usefulness for riders using 200mm+ cranks, who get the most value from gain ratio measurements.

### 4/5 — More data

*2022-08-18*

Need space to compare gear ratios. Need to see the data side by side.

### 4/5 — Bike Gear

*2020-07-19*

Nice app however it does not support the new SRAM and Shimano chain rings. Shimano now has a 10 to 51 and SRAM has a 10 to 52. 50 is as large as this app will allow entry for.

### 4/5 — Bike Gear App is awesome!

*2019-10-11*

The app is great, I do notice though the app on my phone is totally black and has no picture or whatever that’s called. In the AppStore it has a white background with two gears but when I download it to my phone the app is black on my home screen interface. That’s where it loses one star. Please fix this!

### 4/5 — Easy To Use

*2019-06-12, version 2.0*

All the metrics in one spot.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-03-01, version 2.0*

Great app does everything it needs to very easy

### 5/5 — 20.150

*2024-05-31, version 2.0*

Greatest

### 5/5 — Gear inches

*2024-03-27*

This is an easy to use and accurate calculator for determining and comparing gear inches. Possibly becoming a lost art or a metric understood by fewer riders these days, gear inches are still the best method to building an efficient drive train.

### 5/5 — don't do the math!

*2023-06-22, version 2.0*

comprehensive. drills the information down to speed & cadence. compares metrcs. nice

### 5/5 — Gear gear calculator app

*2023-06-21*

This is an excellent app for figuring out what gearing you need and what speed you can peddle with a certain combination. Various measurements, ratio, gain, gear inches.

### 5/5 — Awesome Sauce!

*2023-04-23*

It’s everything you can need or want for gearing. Thank you. This saved me a lot of time, money and aggravation. Simple format is easy to use. Also worth noting the high chain ring count other apps do not incorporate..

### 5/5 — Great app love it

*2022-12-18, version 2.0*

Love it , a lot of détails and information

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2022-12-01, version 2.0*

Really helped me to understand after switching from an 11-32 to 12-25 cassette.

### 5/5 — Simple

*2022-11-07, version 2.0*

No non sense tool

### 5/5 — Great app .. have all the gears

*2022-10-09*

I like this app, it helped me to decide in moving from 3x9 to 1x9. I’m covering more distances now and having more fun.
