I am participating in a Coast to Coast bike tour next year using my 2007 Specialized Ruby Pro 50/34. I had a bike mechanic change my gearing from a 11-27 to a 10-32 to help me climb hills a bit...

Found a bike mechanic who is going to swap out my gears with either a shims no 105 11/32 or a mountain derailleur 11-36. Any advice as to which set up would be better?

Wnyrider, Are you going to buy a new bike for the coast to coast? I love Specialized Rubys and the 2016 models are still doubles but have 11/32 instead of 12/27, better gearing for hills.

Need to buy a headlight for my Specialized Ruby for group rides ending when it is dusk. The two LBS I deal with carry two different brands. One has True Serfas 500 and the other has Light and Motion...

I am going back to my LBS on April 24th to get the rear cassette installed. I will let you know if he was able to do it without replacing the RD and my success using it:)

Thanks for all the advice. I went to my LBS who suggested I not switch to an 11 -28 nor change to a mountain bike derailleur, but instead keep the same derailleur and switch to a 12 - 30 rear...

I am biking part of the GAP and all of the C&O with a gang of eight. We plan on staying at the Best Western at Leesburg. Do we need to cross the potomic using the ferry or are we on the correct side...

Thanks! Then I guess I need good mountain bike shoes that are compatible with Speedplay frogs. Any advice?

Thanx for the input

She would never go for an electric bike. While surfing, I saw a new Specialized bike called Roulux (I believe). Anyone know anything about this bike?
