I'm running 50/16 currently, 20t would really be for TS runs. I think I could effectively run 19t and still be fast out the gate. Worth a try, no big deal if it ain't.

BUT if they don't make them, what can I do but go for the maximum available.

So 47(I'm pretty sure I saw) & 17t (I also believe I saw) are my maximum obtainable gears for speed?

IS higher than 16 & lower than a 48 available?
