That sounds about right in between where a person riding on relatively level terrain should start and end up.
A month or two ago when I felt in top shape I could comfortably push 78".
Now, during my recovery, I push 70" and it has really helped my technique.
46X17X23mm would give 71.1", and that seems like a good learning and riding ratio.
I could spend my whole life at 71" and enjoy it.
whoa...where are you? I am getting my ff wheel in a week, and I was gonna throw a 17 in the back (52 in front) milwaukee is flat...i run 52-16 freewheel right now, and I love it...some hills suck...i am more worried about stopping than going...although since it is a ff i will run a brake...is that a comment or a question? I'm not even sure...
