Changing the gear ratio
The Freedom Chair gear ratio can be adjusted in two ways: by changing the chainring size, or by changing the freewheel. We
recommend changing the chainring size, since it’s a simpler process, but both can be easily done at a bicycle shop.
To make the Freedom Chair easier to push (but slower), swap the chainring with a smaller one, or swap the freewheel with a
larger one. To make the Freedom Chair faster (but harder to push), swap the chainring with a larger one, or swap the freewheel
with a smaller one. Both of these adjustments may require you to add or remove links to the chain in order to keep your center of
gravity the same.
