    Double, Compact, or Triple?

    I would create a poll but I'm not sure how to. I'm curious to see what most people are using.

    My Lemond I've been riding for the past two years has a triple. I just bought a new bike off eBay (w/o really thinking about gears - I was after the frame) and it has a Double with 12-25 in the back. I'm really missing the granny! After searching through old threads, I'm guessing my best bet is to swap out for a 13-29 in the back (all Campy Centaur parts). My last ride on it with some hills left my knees hurting...

    Guy at the bike shop said you could swap out individual rings on the Campy cassettes, but from some web searching it doesn't look like you can on the Centaur, unless you are getting 2010 parts.
