On a crankset, there are normally one or two chain rings; road bikes have two, whereas mountain bikes have one or two. The gear ratio is determined by the number of teeth on the chain ring or rings; smaller chain rings have fewer teeth, while bigger chain rings have more teeth. This means that pedaling will be more challenging with a tiny chain ring since it will produce a harder gear, whereas pedaling will be easy with a large chain ring.
It is crucial to remember that chain rings and cassettes will eventually need to be replaced due to wear and tear. Additionally, maintaining proper shifting performance and lubricating them is crucial to extending their lifespan.

However, the Meridian trike is not a common model, so it may be difficult to find larger chain rings or sprockets specifically designed for it. You could check with the trike's manufacturer or a local bike shop to see if they offer larger chain rings or sprockets as an upgrade or replacement option.
Alternatively, you could check with aftermarket manufacturers that produce chain rings and sprockets for other recumbent trikes or bikes, and see if they would be compatible with your trike's drivetrain.
It's also important to note that larger chain rings or sprockets can affect the overall performance and efficiency of the trike, and may require additional adjustments to the drivetrain and other components. It is recommended to consult a professional before making any changes to your trike.
