I know what you mean. The chordal action aspect is governed by teeth

not chain pitch. IOW, a 10 mm pitch 9t cog would suffer just as much

chordal action as a 1/2 inch pitch 9t cog. The teeth and chain are
"discrete"
Quoted message said:
-- the chain forms "chords" across the circumference of the cog, and too
few
Quoted message said:
chords (low teeth number) can allow the chords to be sensed.
BTW, though I knew of the fact that "bigger is better", I didn't break it down into the actual reasons why, nor was I familiar with the term 'chordal action'. Thank you for a clear, concise explanation.
Very interesting discussion folks, unfortunately I can't contribute more than my awe. Are you guys mech engineers or what ?
