I had a 11-54 for a while… That was the bike I hit 60mph on, combination of downhill and drafting. Could have gone faster if I’d had more gears. That’s what prompted me to buy a Sachs 3x7 hub, so I technically had a 63-speed. But I never had the confluence of conditions to try again.
@jagged_circle sorry, 11-52 is, historically, the top gear of a road bike…
