Yes, I Strava and Samsung Health when I do turn them on. But why does it matter? What are you, the cadence and sprocket police? Each rider has their OWN comfort zone, regardless what some chart says about gearing size, cadence and MPH. I don't like 46T because it's too "easy" for me and gives me a higher cadence. Or a slower cadence and therefore slower speed. My comfort zone is my 48T. It also depends on what I feel like doing when I ride, and if my wife is with me, which means I am definitely going to be riding slower for the most part. You're size and who YOU can mash with is irrelevant to me.
Yet to make you feel better, the first image is 46T/16T with my State Bicycle Pardi Boi. The next two are 48T/16T on my Aventon Cordoba Polish:
Thank you. The lower gi is faster on that similar route if I am understanding correctly.
I am not trying to cause an argument here, just wanted to ensure that we are not relying on anecdotal evidence as facts. I understand top speed, but again, I have much more versatility with a moderate go versus a high gi. Add any hills, and moderate is faster every time. I have never seen any evidence of anything else, 3rd party nor personal experience so I just am trying to keep this fact based.
Ultimately, go ride your bike! I was not trying to be negative. 👍🏾💪🏾
