So I switched to a 16t sprocket...

... and the first thing I noticed was that 1st gear is actually usefull. Lol. Street riding is actually nicer, and 4th gear is actually a decent accelleration gear up past 50 mph.

However, my best mph with the standard 15t gear was 71 mph (revving it's brains out.) But top speed dropped off a quite a bit and I could only grab 64 mph( into a slight head wind). The RPM is definitely lower at 55 and feels smoother. I'm gonna cruise it around town and some back roads before I really form an opinion about this mod.
