Does the gear ratios in a drive change at the upper section or the lower section?Other words are 1.5/1.36 gear ratios determined in the lower half of the drive or the upper half?

Not so simple, a standard Bravo 1 is changed in the upper, an XR is in the lower, a B2 or B3 is a combinaiton of both. However 1.36 is a standard B1 ratio, the 1.35 is an XR.

I didnt know that. Sorry for the wrong information. I have been inside my XR a few times, I thought all Bravos were the same.
