And what size (teeth wise) is the Spur? And is there anyway to change out the spur size? Since it seems to be built into the gear box, I would guess that answer is No, but figured I'd check anyway.
A lot depends on the track you are running on and your driving. If it a small tight track the 17T might be ok to start, but with the BL, I would go with the 21T. You are correct, the spur gear is what it is and can not be changed.
