16 teeth is what i use with a 44 or 45 chainring :daumenhoch:

Jaymz:
16 for me too, although if you're going to rie it distance a 15 will give you a better top speed

You will stuggle getting a 15T to fit new tuffs... Works with any brand 16 tooth or larger freewheels.  Also works with AC brand 15 tooth freewheels.

I can only see ACS, Dicta or shimano's in 16t (although there are some cheapy ones as well) If its going to be ACS, how will I know which size to get?
Thanks, guys :)
