Manually calculated -3dB cut off frequency differs from the simulated value
From the 2N2222 data sheet: -

1 kΩ and 1 pF produce a 3 dB point of 159 MHz but, when you factor in the typical capacitance of the actual transistor it's going to be below 20 MHz.
You should also take into account the transition frequency too. At 250 MHz (see above) the transistor's β will be unity. At 25 MHz the β will be only 10 and this makes a poor choice if in fact you need gain at tens of MHz.
