I am just gonna ride my Purefix this winter, I am not going to change the tires or the gearing.
Thanks, I understand how it works. What I wanted to get a feel for is what my top speed would be on downhills and what my cadence would be at that speed, so I used my brakes to stay at a manageable speed and kept pedaling instead of coasting. Going to the bike shop this afternoon to pick up some parts. It'll be a fun experiment.
Good luck this winter.
