to be honest gear inches arent as noticeable on a fixed gear as they are on a geared bike.
Whenever you change up to a bigger gear on a fixed wheel a similar ratio from what you pushed before is still controlled by the force of the rear wheel spinning.
On a geared bike, as you have a freewheel, the difference of your gears is the difference you have to gain just by pushing with your legs. There isnt any force acting on to help you with the rotation. If this makes sense :)

Yep, that makes sense. I still found it that much harder on the steep climbs though and I don't spin out on the flats with 69GI so I will go back to that as that is the sweet spot for me personally.
