  • What gear will they have been pushing at the end there? 53/11? Bigger?

    I remember seeing a Cav sprint tips video on GCN a while back where he said "don't choose too big a gear".

  • Bigger.

    For Cav's peak speed on 53-11 then he would need to be spinning at 122rpm. Not sure how stable that would be on a road sprint. 110rpm would need 58-11.

    You don't want to choose too big a gear because you don't want to be grinding to the line. Don't want to small either because you'll loose the ability to kick.
