You don't need a 42t large chainring. You are not capable of riding that fast. (No offense if you happen to be a top 1% beast).

My large chainring is a 36t and I use my top gear just a few times a year. If I'm going that fast it means I'm on a downhill. Not just a regular downhill but a steep downhill. At that point I'm usually coasting.
