i ride 48x17 on my track bike, 43x16 on my commuter. since youve never ridden fixed before, id suggest the latter. it would probably be cheaper for you to swap out the front chainring with a rocket ring than it would to buy a new rear cog. a rocket ring would probably cost you $20 max, no special tools needed.
