What pinion gear should I use on the Team Saxo F1-180-V5?

It depends on your motor and the track. In the 1/10 2WD f1 class, racers gear by final drive ratio: 21.5T and up near 2.19. On the F1-180-V5's stock 64T spur that is about 29T for 21.5T and up. Tight tracks gear down, open tracks gear up. For a starting pinion matched to your motor, use the So Dialed Pinion Recommender with the F1-180-V5 selected.

What is the internal ratio (transmission ratio) of the Team Saxo F1-180-V5?

The F1-180-V5 has an internal ratio of 1:1. Final drive ratio = spur ÷ pinion × 1. With the stock 64T spur, a 26T pinion gives an FDR of 2.46 and a 47T gives 1.36.

How many teeth is the stock spur gear on the Team Saxo F1-180-V5?

64 teeth. Changing the spur moves every pinion's ratio at once; most racers leave the spur and tune with the pinion.
