I'm considering going up in front and/or down in the back--but it seems nobody's ever considered doing that before, judging from a quick search of previous threads on sprocket changes. The rationale is that it's the safest way to improve highway fuel consumption: I've seen suggestions to remove the mirrors for aerodynamic improvement but I like seeing behind me. I took a 700 mile ride in a full tuck for $5 savings in gas but my neck is still sore, and that was a coupla weeks ago.

So gearing seems like the way to go. But I'm not really cut out to be a pioneer in mechanical modifications, I can barely handle an oil change by myself. Has anyone done this before? Care to share any wisdom gained, if so?
