Like my coffee, I'm getting old & weak, but I still ride every day & enjoy it. I have found though,
with this lower range, I can still make some pretty decent speed using a bit faster cadence yet
with less exertion. The main plus is that it's a lot easier on my gravelly old knees. If one is
relatively tall, pedals extensions can also be a real boon to your knees.
