Changing the variables does add to the computational headaches. 62 inches works for me most of the time..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;

I wished I would have had this info. a long time ago. I've been riding a fixed gear for several years. 42X16 or 70.88 inches. I just recently switched to a 17 or 66.71 inches.. Way Better for group rides and just seems to fit my goals for riding fixed better. Right now it feels like &amp;quot;the perfect gear&amp;quot; Thanks, Terry &lt;/p&gt;
