I get it 100% I used to love going fast, I think that’s the inner 12yo in us all, but the gearing especially the low gearing is what allows me to ride on anything but the flats since my joints have gotten as a bad as they are.

On my fat bike my average speed is in the 5-7 mph range but it will go almost anywhere at 5mph. The Cruiser is a little faster but I’m not in any hurry to get anywhere its all about the ride.
