Why amateurs shouldn't pedal as fast as Chris Froome

My average when doing a 12hr TT is 60rpm. I’ll average 75rpm in a one-hour race only because I have to at 40+kph. Often people say spin more — nope, I know this is the most efficient rpm. There is a reason why old-school gearing was the way it was. And no, I don’t get knee problems. Malcolm Borg
