# Cycling Gear Ratio Utility AI Agent Connect

> Cycling Gear Ratio Utility MCP gives your AI agent the ability to perform mechanical drivetrain calculations. It handles everything from single gear ratio math to comparing complex cassette setups and calculating wheel RPM based on your pedal cadence.

- **Tags:** bicycle, gear-ratio, cadence, drivetrain, cycling-tech

## Description

You can stop manually calculating tooth counts and gear ranges. This MCP gives your AI client the mechanical logic needed to handle bicycle drivetrain math. If you are building a cycling app, analyzing a new bike build, or simulating training loads, your agent can now use these tools to get instant, accurate results. It handles the math for specific gear combinations, evaluates the mechanical advantage of a full cassette, and determines how your pedal cadence translates to wheel rotation. Instead of guessing how a new cassette will feel, you can have your agent compare setups to see exactly how much harder or easier a climb will be.

## Tools

### compare_gears
This tool compares two different gear combinations. It tells you which setup is harder or easier to pedal.

### get_cadence_speed_multiplier
This tool calculates the multiplier between your pedal rotation and your wheel rotation. It uses cadence to find your wheel RPM.

### get_gear_range
This tool determines the total mechanical advantage range within a specific cassette or gear setup.

### get_gear_ratio
This tool calculates the exact gear ratio for a single front and rear gear combination.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the gear ratio for a 50 tooth chainring and a 15 tooth cog?
```

**Response:** 
```
The gear ratio is 3.33.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Compare a 34/28 setup with a 50/17 setup.
```

**Response:** 
```
The 50/17 setup is harder than the 34/28 setup.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
If my gear ratio is 3.0 and my cadence is 90 RPM, what is my wheel RPM?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your wheel RPM is 270.
```

## Capabilities

### Ratio Calculation
Your agent calculates specific ratios for any front and rear gear pairing.

### Setup Comparison
Your agent determines the difficulty difference between two gear setups.

### Range Analysis
Your agent finds the total mechanical advantage available in a cassette.

### Cadence Translation
Your agent converts pedal cadence into wheel RPM using gear multipliers.

## Use Cases

### New Bike Builds
Use the agent to check if a new cassette provides the gear range you need.

### Training Simulations
Calculate wheel RPM from target cadences to model speed and effort.

### Component Upgrades
Compare your current gear setup against a new one to see the change in difficulty.

### App Development
Integrate these tools into an AI-powered cycling assistant.

## Benefits

- Eliminates manual math errors in drivetrain calculations.
- Provides instant comparisons between different gear setups.
- Connects pedal cadence directly to wheel rotation math.

## How It Works

Connect the MCP to your client and start asking for math.

1. Connect the MCP to your AI client through Vinkius.
2. Ask your agent to perform a specific gear calculation.
3. The agent calls the appropriate tool from this MCP.
4. The agent receives the precise math result.
5. Your agent provides the answer in plain text.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What can this MCP calculate?**
It calculates gear ratios, gear ranges, and the relationship between cadence and wheel RPM.

**Can I compare two different bikes?**
Yes, you can use the comparison tool to see which gear setup is harder or easier.

**How does it handle cadence?**
It uses a multiplier to turn your pedal cadence into wheel rotations.

**Do I need to host this myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts the MCP so it is ready to use immediately after you connect.

**Which AI clients work with this?**
Any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf can use these tools.

**How do I calculate a single gear ratio?**
You can use the `get_gear_ratio` tool by providing the number of teeth on your front chainring and your rear cog.

**Can I compare two different gear setups?**
Yes, the `compare_gears` tool allows you to compare two combinations to see which is harder or easier.

**How does cadence affect my wheel speed?**
The `get_cadence_speed_multiplier` tool calculates the rear wheel RPM by multiplying your gear ratio by your pedal cadence.
