Once you get it and if you've got good leg, that's fine. If you're over the bars far enough, the resistance won't make too much a difference. In that video I am using 47x15, or 82 gear inches.
Is that a Shogun TT in the vid? Some say skidding is easier with a sloping top tube. Do you find this to be true, chOmbO?
