less teeth on the sprocket puts more stress on your chain

I have a 14T front but don't know the top speed. But is also dependent on what size rear sprocket you have as well.

It also depends on your bike have 2 gs's one does about 95MPH WITH 14 the other over 100MPH the faster bike being older.
but try it as they pull away from lights well  :thumb: also if you do long trips or fast roads it will feel like it wants another gear.
have left 14 on older bike and 15 on newer ( only 2 yr between bikes ) younger bike gets used for long trips other for short.
