I suspect I don't spin at as high an RPM as more seasoned fixed-gear riders, but I have the impression that my ability to spin at a higher RPM has increased significantly since I have geared waaay down to 59".
I have in the past ridden with 82", and I look forward to seeing how much improvement I have made, when I go back to 82".
Of course, I
assume I have improved.
The lead mechanic at a local bike shop says he can spin at 160rpm.
I don't question his truthfullness, but does this seem possible or probable?
Who has a high spin rate they can verify by computer?
How high?
