            15t, you must want to go fast! Im rocking a huge 50t up front for the old school look and a 18t cog, its a nice speed, just to the point of being able to cruise at a good pace but not kill my hill climbing.

                40/15 isnt that bad. I can get up all the hills around here and still go a pretty good pace. ive been riding my peugeot 10 speed as a single and trying not to coast. I like the ratio. Even in the woods i dont shift much. Always in the middle ring and then the last 5 gears or something.

                  My seat is actually like 2 or 3 inches higher than that.

                        No idea. I do know it's geared pretty high. At critical mass all of the other people on fixies were pedaling their asses off and I was kinda just cruising around. The thing really flies.

                          chainring doesnt matter in relation to your cadence speed as much as the cog on the rear. the bike probably came with a 15 or 16 tooth cog.
