Seems that this would matter more for MTB, when going slow and using really low gear ratios with larger diameter tires (29ers). Possible it helps on technical terrain?
I think so, especially when one is plodding uphill? 20 degrees is quite a bit.
Let me also be the first to point out that going from 18T to 36T freehub doubles the frequency of the angry swarm of bees effect while coasting at speed.
