For what it's worth, 46/18 is about 70 gear inches, depending on tire size. That gearing is pretty much what everyone would advise as a starting point. All of my fixed gear bikes have run between about 68 and 71 gear inches, depending on the particulars of the equipment I had on hand and pesky integer-based mathematics.
