Since I have a 19t cog from Ollie that fits my (brother's) hub, I've been thinking about the ratio I would like to run; 50/19 sounds like the most ideal ratio. Around 2.63 (definitely beats 2.875..), offers 19 skid patches, not too spinny and not too difficult to accelerate.
But here comes the problem of acquiring a "cheap" 50t crankset/chainring. :(
