I run an early Halibrand in my speedster. I drive on the street and run hill climbs so there is a definite advantage for me. John is right about modern QC gears, they are quite quiet. I run a 6.40:1 ratio on hill climbs, and start in 2nd gear, it saves the time taken to shift once instead of twice.
