    Bicycle gear system's Input-Output ratio?

    A person weighing 60 kg exerts 30 kg of thrust on a pedal (crank) x 2 pedals = 60 kg of force per Revolution. Let's say @ 30 RPM. What is the output kg of force per RPM on the back wheel where it meets the tar. I have all the sizes and forces, yet the correct formula eludes me. The ratio per 1...

    If two gears are connected by a shaft do they have the same torque?

    Thanks Filip, it isn't relevant to my problem, but I did learn something, so thank you.

    If two gears are connected by a shaft do they have the same torque?

    Thanks for the answer. The axle is driven separately. The two gears are attached to it. All I need to know is, if the 12 tooth gear can lift 10 kg will the 48 tooth gear be able to lift 10 kg as well please?

    If two gears are connected by a shaft do they have the same torque?

    1 axle. 2 gears on the same axle fixed in place. Does the larger gear with 48 teeth have the same amount of (force/strength) as the smaller gear of 12 teeth. IE: if I attached a chain to the 12 tooth gear and it could lift a max load of 10 kg, would the 48 tooth gear be able to lift 10 kg as...
