Bike year: 2007
model: EC250
mods: LTR PV cover
Gearing: 13:52
Top speed: 76 on an ICO, not sure on GPS
what kind of riding do you do: technical trails, several enduros a year, occasional hare scrambles
Result: I need the bike to climb very steep rock hills and it does this well. Also, when racing in tight but less technical terrain, it allows me to avoid making the more awkward shift to and from first gear. Essentially, first gear is a bailout. Top speed is a non-issue.
