I do long, spirited group rides in the flat plain around here, and would like closer ratios at the high end. A 12t would be nice for tailwindy days as well. If someone made a 13-19 7sp freewheel I'd be all over it, but my only option there is ludicrously expensive non-Hyperglide Regina or Sachs from eBay.
Ok, I didn't realize you meant that tight of a ratio. An Ultegra 6500 9 speed 12/21 cassette (http://www.universalcycles.com/shopp...48&category=40) sounds like your next buy.
