TIME OUT !!!
Something is wrong with this picture.
I had to go back to the beginning of this thread and get the rear tooth count........
SO......
Increasing the teeth on the front makes the gearing "taller"........
Decreasing the tooth count on the rear does the SAME THING, makes the gearing higher.
Upping the front one tooth PLUS dropping the rear one would make matters even worse (top end loss).
I think the intent was (or should be) using a 40 rear with a 15 front.
