A while back, I pondered the gearing question, especially the 50T big ring. I
eventually switched over to a 46T to see how that went. I HATED it. I felt like
I was always spinning it out, especially downhill, or with a nice tailwind, or
while I was riding behind other riders at a high pace. I quickly put the 50T
back on and rode it another month. After that I found that it was quite useful
for my riding style. I like to have a top end that allows me to chase someone
down, or pick up speed when needed going downhill, or when I want to make full
use of a 30 mph tailwind. I can live with the fact that those gears may not get
much use other that in those circumstances, but I come upon those circumstances
more than you'd think. I also found that after keeping the 50T that I
eventually got stronger and can spin in that ring more than I was able to
before.
Just my 2 pennies,
Joe
