Current Projects chat and miscellany

nah, i love the ratio
yes, i do feel that my knees are shattered after every ride and its a bit hard to cycle into the wind...but i love the top end speeds with this ratio either way and i hardly stop on the route of my daily commute

another thing with high gear ratio - when need to stop quickly you are putting shitloads of pressure on the cranks and chainring - that's how i slightly twisted my one (i know it sounds mad, but that's my experience) :{)
