Posted this on the other thread and it works here as well.
Theo Bos at 140kph or 86mph. Normal bike. Not a normal rider.
Questions about gearing? The people who do this do not care about gearing. The bike does not ride the bike. The cyclist rides the bike. Whenever I hear about "spinning out" at 90rpm it tells me that person has not ridden a bike that much. At speed it is far far safer to be doing high rpm and if you ever went fast you would know why that is the case.
