But with a geared bike you set-off with a lower ratio than you would fixed.

If 3/32" is adequate for a HC start, then why bother with 1/8"?

HC have got to be more demanding than, eg, regular road use.

People think that a long climb effort (5 minute) has a bigger peak watt effort, than a smaller humb (1 minute effort) - but it's the other way around. You can power your way through a 1 minute effort, but you need to dose that 5 minute effort and hold back the horses.

Eh? Of course a shorter ride will have a higher peak power.
