The original "I don't know it all" of aviation.
...and did OK in 45 (still working on keeping the altitude precise while in that steep bank, but getting close).
A tip here is to add enough nose up trim so that you don't have a heavy pull to maintain altitude.
Also, just before you begin your turn, take a mental sight picture snapshot of where the spinner is relative to the horizon, then keep it there. Alternatively, once in a 45° bank, memorize where the horizon touches the glareshield and keep it there. If your nose drops or rises, the horizon will "move out of position". Alter your pitch as appropriate.
