Okay I still don’t understand properly.

If I were to run a 15 / 48 that would be similar to a 14 / 45 on ratios. Apart from the riding styles and personnel preference argument, what is the actual benefit and why would you run one than the other?

I get the benefit of the smaller front sprocket should equal quicker acceleration, smaller rear sprocket for top speed argument, but why would you choose one of these gearings over the other??
