I'm not quite sure what Tulex wants but high cadence isn't particularly highly efficient.
Hey, y'all know what's ironic? My point was that newbie riders really aren't ready to pedal like experienced riders do, so it's bad advice to suggest they do. I should've realized that many participants in this particular forum really aren't ready to understand subtle issues so it was bad of me to bring it up. Apologies all 'round.
