The 15 x 28 Regina Oro works seems to do significantly better than a 14 x 28 with NR record rear mechanism and an NR 42 x 52 chain set. The gearing change looks like this.

52 15 93.6 14 100.3

For me it is just slightly higher than my daily rider 48 x 14 which yields a 92.6 for 700 c wheels.

Practical and functions well. That's a winner! No wait that's Suntour.
