Steve-b77…my cadence isnt as high as those stats you posted, 26-27 mph seems to be about as fast as i can get, it feels smooth and effortless, moving my legs any faster feels ungainly and seems to unbalance me and unsettle the bike, going to higher gearing would seem to be more appropriate until i can increase my cadence to 100rpm+ with decent technique and stability.
…you must have read my mind though as I’m looking at using the cycle to work scheme to get a second road bike with a proper 53/39 chainset.
Schmiken, there dont seem to be any problems highlighted in this thread with what i want to do so what are your contact details?
