i wouldn't want to ride around on a high 70's gear, 73 is fine for me, i don't get beaten from the lights and can spin along at 25-30 mph. but a higher gear would be a right pain in a headwind.
not being a pie eater and riding ss off-road before i took to fixed possibly meant my joints had an easier time of it.
