What is this “Delaware Gear” of which you speak? As a long-time Delawarean, I feel embarrassingly ignorant!

There are just too many steep climbs in my life. My double speed with a 52" low gear allows me to mash up my every single day climb home. The 67" high gear lets me spin away on the flats at a speed that will eventually get me there. If I had only a 67" gear the bike would be unusable to me because I'd have to walk home the last mile and a half of every ride. If I had only a 52" fixed I'd be miserable trying to pedal down in the first place. What this 1x9 does have me noodling over is the ultimate "Delaware Gear". It's late February and we haven't had any really nasty arguments, so I'll start a new thread titled "In search of the Delaware Gear" and see how many people I can piss off.
