Since the compact double vs triple question comes up a lot, I thought I'd set up a poll specific to our area. The Central Valley is flat but the coastal mtns and the Sierras have huge climbs, both long and steep.
Therefore, using the following guidelines, choose the crankset that is closest to the crank you use on your roadbike.
Standard double: 39-53 chainrings
Compact double: 34-50 chainrings
Standard triple: 30-42-52 chainrings
Touring triple: 26-36-48 chainrings
Please describe where you ride. Common routes and hills.
