Is it just a matter of buying the right bits and putting them on? Would I need a new chain? It's a 29er so not too worried about bottoming out on rocks and roots.

Being winter time I don't want to tinker with the car so I need something to mess around with.

Edit: NM... I figured it out. Will report back if I fixed my useless short gearing.

Edit: Yeah, changing to a larger crank side ring is nice. Will have to watch for the police now with a much higher top speed
42t ring on a 29er? How fast do you want to go?
