If say we were on a 20/70 sprocket how would increasing rear tyre pressures from 18psi to 28 psi have an effect on gearing ? obviously the tyre would have a much bigger rolling diameter so I was trying to get my head round what sprocket I would need to increase to keep the same gearing if you see what im on about! is there an aproximate psi/tooth ratio?

ps this relates to a Honda cadet

thanks!
