48/17 is brilliant for me, but I've just moved from Manchester to Bath and the hills are pretty punishing...
I think I'm going to have to fit a brake.
Bath is real good for riding I found, there are a few monster hills but most are rideable on 48x17. I found there is plenty of streets crossing hills so you can work out routes that don't involve massive descents or climbs all the time. A brake wouldn't be a bad shout thought if your riding up and down the hills regularly, if I lived there I would have one 100%.
