    :p 70+ kmph (50 mph) or so pushing a 52 tooth road ring with an 11 rear cog on a ski area fire road in Idaho. The other day on my MTB I passed several roadies on a paved ski area access road max speed on recorded on my ODO was 47. I was coasting in a tuck looking through my visor, couldn't pedal (no use) due to running a micro drive now.:eek:

    Hit 46 mph last year going downhill. Not sure what that is in KPH, but I white knuckled it and was stupid enough to look down at the speedometer for a split second. I should have known better that it tracks your max speed.

    44.8 mph for me. I coasted that because I was too tired to pedal after riding 90+ miles.
