What's your polo gear?

I don't think so. Maybe fixed reduces your top end speed a bit, but it isn't about top end speed.

slow to realise that playing fixed is shit.

I played 42x17 fixed 700c last night, it was awful, but kind of fun.

Turns out I got the number of teeth on my freewheel and the length of my cranks wrong.

I'm thinking of getting a 16t freewheel, especially as everyone seems to be liking the bigger courts and my legs are mega powerful these days, I was spinning out a little on the bigger than I'm used to LO courts last year. Would take me from a tiny 40.34GI to a massive 42.86GI, I'm sure the difference will be breathtaking.

it would move you up 5 places on the HENCH leaderboard...

That's something I want, I want it bad.

Updated, and took EMM out of the No. 1 HENCHSPOT as last time I saw him he wasn't on 700c.

I should really move myself down a spot after fitting smaller tyres.

32/20 (39.2gi) - Jimmy 26x1.3 170mm
26/18 (38.7gi) - khornight 700x28 170mm
26/18 (38.7gi) - Bill 700 X 25 (or is it 28? *Can't remember)
