I am looking for speed. specifically, i'd love to average anything around 15mph and have a top speed - on downhills - in the 35mph area. but that's just a short few seconds. i definitely do not have the guts or the experience to feel comfortable doing 35mph the entire time.


the ~25 mile jaunts that i have done, i have averaged about 10-12mph and my top speed was 26mph on a downhill. i think the average speed has something to do with the bikes ability to roll quickly... i think with a better wheelset and thinner tires, i would be able to achieve this on flat bars. but again, i need more experience/endurance riding.
