I've only used them on a 5 gear cassette. based on my more nodern bikes I'd expect there to be a significant difference between gears but I haven't had those bikes in working order in 20 years. My memory is I could never find any gears except the biggest and smallest.

I do intend to get those bikes in working order but money and time are limited and those are low on my todo list (my todo list will take 3000 years to complete so don't go expecting me to get them done soon)
