Gearing up to 25/39 will give you more top speed but you will loose a little grunt on the bottom end unless you clutch it a little.

is the 25/38 a better all the way around set up then the 24/39, cause they both equal the same amount of teeth!!!

Well, 39 div. by 24 = 1.625
* * * *38 div. by 25 = 1.52

If you weigh under 200 lbs, the 25/38 gear will give you:
Less slip off the line, better midrange, better top end
