He never said he needed more than a 50 tooth. I raced Cat 3/4 when I was younger. Did not win any races, but often finished top 5. I ran a 52/14, and nobody had smaller than a 14 when I first started racing. Fastest criterium I was in had average speed of 30 mph.
Correction - actually on that crit I was on tour, changed my freewheel to a tight cluster but I was running a 48/38 in front.
