On a flip-flop hub, how much difference in gearing is typical? Feasible?
So I'm thinking of going ss/fixed, and and I'm thinking of 46/17 on the fixed side, but on the freewheel side as a bailout gear how much bigger can I go before I run out of dropout? 19? 21? I'm sorry if this a dumb question...
