I don't know how I missed the last post in this thread.
Right off Citizenbike's Tokyo page:
Gear inches 46.1, 40.4, 35.9, 30.8, 26.9, 23.1
And I remember years ago, when I was "young and fit", I owned a single speed bike with a final gear ratio about the same as the Tokyo's top gear. I enjoyed that bike very much.
To each their own but I would like to know how the Tokyo has performed for the OP.

"Hi,
If so its appallingly undergeared for the young and fit.
I just knocked off 20% off my 6 speed 33" / 66" range 47
mm tyre 20" folder. I find it a good range for my 50+ age.
Checking I get 24" to 48" with 47mm tyres, so that would be
my bike with two extra lower gears and the top two missing.
Still its too low for a daily commuter and a regular rider IMO.
That would be fine for someone my age who does not ride
regularly. When I started riding again I initially struggled
with any real headwinds and relatively small hills.
Now I can do both and 33" is about right where if you can't
manage the hill it is easier and less stressful to walk up it.
