Well I have a 16t cog in the back, so I'm thinking either a 34, 36 or 38

90rpm @ 16X34 = 21.4 km/h
90rpm @ 16X36 = 22.8 km/h
90rpm @ 16X38 = 24.1 km/h

The thought of spinning at 120rpm in the 16x34 and only going 28.6 km/h kinda scares me!

It seems that most stock SS MTBs come with either 16 or 17 cogs and 32 or 34 cranks, so I'm definitely in the 'traditional' zone.

I may have to copy you and do your nifty double chainring trick or something.
