are we comparing chainring sizes here? haha. i can still hold ~60kmh on a flat with this setup... ~140rpm...
The Raleigh runs a 52 with a 17/19 fixed and fixed set up... won't hold 60 kmh for too long with this set up or any set up I have but the gearing is good for holding 40kmh for a good hour.

Anyways... got in a nice commute today riding something a little more practical and was not sure if I was commuting or looking to get out and do a little touring.

Got the summer tyres on which really pick up the road speed over the winter / cx tyres and added a second bottle cage and a snappy new kickstand.
