I run a 48x18 on one ride and a 49x 20 on the other, I ease along on both about
20mph most any time i check the speed. Funny thing is I had 48x21 on at one time
and ran along at 20mph w/that gear combo aswell. My legs just spin more and I
got more exercise, mostly ran that gear when I rode w/a girl friend. Here in
Williamsburg Va. there is alot of rolling terrain and w/the 48x21 you will learn to spin
a nice round pedal stroke.
