Gear.doc
Calculates custom charts and/or graphs of bicycle gear ratios.
"Gear" sorts from 1 to 27 ratios so that the shift pattern is
implied by the text output on "F4". (From 1 to 3 chain rings
in the front and from 1 to 9 cogs on the rear cluster.)
"Gear" also produces custom charts or files relating peddling
cadence to the bikes speed and its gear ratios. The ratios and
speed tables may be printed out or sent to a file and may be
used for later reference.
Select your particular combination of gears on "F5" and display
the results. Show the relation to speed from "F8". Or use
the other menu picks to customize the program to your liking.
"Gear" is fast, friendly and easy to use with menus, save/
restore files and the ability to customize it with an initialization
file. It is not copy protected and you are encouraged to
distribute it as widely as possible: "shareware". However
it is copyrighted and you are encouraged to register it. Please
see the "Gear.hlp" file for more information and hardware
requirements and licensing information or press "F9" once
the program is loaded.
Installation:
"Gear" is not copy protected so the DOS "copy" command may
be used to install it on any disk. To get everything
copy "G*.*" from your source to your target. The minimal
you need is "gear.exe" but you might like to get the "*.hlp"
files or "g*.hlp". "Gear" may be run from a 360KB floppy or from
a hard disk or a sub-directory. "Gear.ini" and "gear.dat" are
easily re-generated by the program itself from "F6" and "F5".
Every menu pick has some explanation in one of the help files.
If you use this product please support it.
Thank you for your support!
