Lots of my road bikes have sat around 4k rpm@ 100kph in top. Nothing wrong with those revs out on the open road but saying that I'm about to gear mine down purely to give it a bit more punch under acceleration.
If I was setting off on a long tar road ride i.e. thousands of k's, I would use standard gearing 15/45 but carry a 14 tooth front as well.
