Just wanted a big chainring up front- thought it would look cool on a fixed tt rig. I commute on 63 x 14 around London which isn't too bad apart from when you have a headwind on a 13%er for 0.6 miles - that hurts
Besides 70 is quite normal compared to someone like 'Big ring Bowdler' running a 86 as shown here: http://blog.daum.net/fatastico/13
