Thanks! Of course, the course. I’m curious though and it’s a really valuable starting point! Rather than looking at the choices of, say, TCR racers because I feel they’re either super strong, or choosing gearing to get them over the Alps, or both.
Plus my only one gear bike riding experience so far has been SSMTB (which is like 30-18 gearing for singletrack!) and riding janky steel Buffalo Bike-style runabouts growing up in India.

Depends on the course (of course) and how spinny you like to be - I recently did a 200k with 46x15 - 46x18 and was happy with it. I was planning to be very chill to get through it and it and can't complain.
Looks like it's going to be a nice build!
