Thanks alot for advice. I will try the 15 through the summer and see how I get on.
I appreciate what you are saying regarding the smaller cog at the back. I dont have a burning desire to go quicker just to have my legs turn a little slower. This may be the ideal solution.
I also appreciate the off the peg bikes have the 42-16 ratio for a reason, research must say this is the ideal gear for most people, indeed you have agreed thats the case. I like the gear just dont like spinning like a madman!
Thanks again.
