What a cool old Riv.

I love the half-step/granny triples, and actually prefer them to the
46/36/26 set up that Riv sells.  However, I like to put slightly smaller
rings, so instead of a 50/46/28 (or so) I like a 48/42/28 (or so).  And I
like the rings to be Bio-Pace.

So, now you see what kind of a person I really am. :)
