Development Calculator — Distance Per Pedal Revolution
Calculate how far your bike travels per pedal revolution.
How We Calculate This
Development Formula
Development (m) = (Chainring / Sprocket) x Wheel Circumference (m)
Each pedal revolution turns the rear wheel by the gear ratio. The distance per wheel turn equals the wheel circumference.
