I have had a couple setups where the 4 tooth spread with the Dingle cog was matched by a 4 tooth spread in the rings, so the axle position stays almost the same in high gear and low gear. Mostly that was for my OCD (and fender line). The Quickbeam as shipped had an 8 tooth spread in the rings (32/40), and a single cog (18t). The long angled dropouts (track ends) took up the chain slack.
