We use the RFM 130 kts as the limit, but recommend lower speeds for raising and lowering the gear just to reduce wear and tear on all the parts. I try to keep it under 120, and often lower, depending on the situation, just as something I feel is good practice. If I need to move the gear at 129.75 kts, I'll do it.
