All apart from that is a theoretical top speed calculated by the gear ratios-which (i doubt) would take into consideration environmental factors, friction, weight etc etc etc

Would it be effected by inflating your rear tyre to 130psi?

yes. By inflating your tyre to such a high psi it would have the affect of creating a larger circumference. Thus meaning you would travel further per rotation of the wheel
