changing the cog is unlikely to fuck it up, but it will make the bike more responsive in traffic, easier to stop quickly, and much better going uphill. and help your knees. although you're probably developing some massive quads... ;)
my fuji track (07) came with a 48-16, which i changed to 48-18 which i think is perfect around town. but each to his own.
