Same motor/bat setup as me, but I dropped the spur to 62 to make use of the low-CG mount. I feel I could go up from 18/62 to 20/62 with now problems as well with the badlands tires. That puts me at the same ratio as you with th 22/68.

That just feels like a nice range for a MT. No need to try and go 50 in a truck..... More fun to go a little slower and use it on the bumps like it was made to do.
