The question is - would anyone be interested?

To engage the maximum number of participants, put up as few hurdles as possible. Limiting the gear to 72" is already a barrier to entry, especially if single chainrings make a comeback and people start riding TT bikes with a bottom gear of >72" again :-)

I'm sure this is correct.

In our case the original suggestion was for a medium gear 10, but personally I think a 25 without gear restriction would be more interesting, although there's no reason not to have both.

My own 25 pb was done on a bike with a bottom gear of 86" - not ideal for riding to the start of the H25/2.

86" is easy, most of the people who ride fixed on there have to haul 100"+ up the hill
