The ring count it a good point. My QR, the ugly purple one, came with a 55 tooth big ring. That said, I had no problem pushing the big ring at all. My QR was pretty darn quick even with Mr. Notquick riding it.

Another good point is the lack or availability of tires. They can be found on Ebay, now and again, but to the best of my search, few other places. Local bike shops? Forget it!
