veto, flat bars, 75.2" or 73.8" gear, depending on what's available when I place my replacement transmission internet order....you can't go much faster than 75" will allow on London streets anyway, I could always keep up with the geared riders training round Regent's Park and it's just low enough to get up most hills....I used to live in Muswell Hill and could absolutely bomb up the hill from archway to Highgate tube if I'd get a good run up!......if you wanna do well at the track, riding / training on a high gear will hinder you....watch any bunch track race and in the finish the winners are twiddling like loonies...you won't get that fluidity from riding big gears..
