RE: sprocket size
8/42 is almost a 20% reduction, so it would have to make a huge difference.
You'd be very slow off the line, but you could cruise the highway atreally low RPMs, once you finally get up to highway speed. And you'd need to downshift a couple gears whenever you want to pass someone.
If you go ahead and do it anyway, please report back and let us know how it worked out.
