Unless you live in a country where it's perfectly flat and have tailwind at every direction you go, seriously don't ride at that ratios, my dad who's 57 have two knees operation because he been riding with a higher gear inches almost all his life (48x15 on the fixed and never use the 34t of the compact on his roadie).
