282 mph. Not bad, considering ones riding a chopper, wheelieing, and giving a backie to a female hitch hiker show a using my love lolly as a grab handle.

This thread hasn't been done before

This is a forum on the internet, questions inevitably come up again. Many people see this is a negative for some reason.

Anyway my fastest speed on a road bike was 50mph on a seriously steep downhill. Only done it twice but speed feels really good! I think its better that I not disclose how fast I have been on a bike with an engine.

my cheap bike computer said top speed 87.4 mph average speed 2.1 mph. I threw it in the bin

According to my eTrex 30… 74kph descending the Cairn O'Mount North face, previously c.85kph Berrydale Brae Northwards. Its good to watch your front tyre change shape as you go faster owing to centripetal force.

just looked through strava and mine is 47.9mph and it felt great, didn't realise how fast i was going so now investing in a computer for the bike.

51.8mph down hill on a old commute in Cornwall. I need to get a short cut to paste that comment though

According to Strava I went at 43.6mph freewheeling down the driveway of Hoghton Tower. Wouldn't be surprised if it was accurate coming down there either. It's quite a big driveway.

I have only been riding for a couple of months and I really enjoy it.I don't really do long rides just 8-12miles at the fastest I can push myself.I use Strava to record my rides and my top speed I have recorded is 34 mph down hill,a friend told me he has recorded 45 mph!!

What is your fastest speed?

95 MPH.Oops thought I was on the motor cycle chat.

Update

45.1 mph reaches today

 

[Nigelnaturist]

According to Bryton I hit 42.3mph today, though I know this is wrong as one it didn't feel like it and two the Garmin had it at 37.6mph which it felt more like, I have touched 40mph on occasion's (though strava has yet to show it on both occasions)

And for the record the speed is by way of a speed sensor, so is not prone to gps glitches.

Strava says 30.6 my computer on the bike says 47.7 kmh which is 29.something mph so I'm going with the lower number.

I regularly used to hit 40+ on decents on my s works venge i havent dared to that on the tarmac yet as its really stiff and im afraid if i hit a bump it might snap in half lol ill find out what ky max has been on the tarmac thisweek as this is the first proper week ive had it out

 

[jack smith]

Anyone know how to find your top speed overall on strava?
