anything over 40 on a bike feels, well "fun".

Saying from experience when I got mine to top out at 55 with just the right gearing (took a full mile to hit that speed).

Then the drain screw vibrated out and I lost my gas.

I am more concerned with pulling power than top speed. With a 40 tooth rear my max speed at 9000rpm will be around 40 to 45. That puts my cruising speed around 20 to 35, which is all I desire.
