Ben, there are lots of different points of view about riding. Nobody's
right or wrong. I would only worry about cross chaining if it was noisy and
bothering me. I would cruise up hills that are unlikely to need the small
ring by just shifting the back. If I thought I would need the small ring, I
My entirely unscientific opinion is it's basically a 1x system with a
granny bailout. You're supposed to use the 42 most of the time and across
the full range.

I missed the fact you are actually using a triple with only the middle and
inner rings. Same math except Front triple CL = 46.0 mm for the Middle
Ring. I dont know the Middle to Inner ring spacing, but on my XD2 is is
about 8 to 9mm.
A front CL of 46 and a rear CL of 42.5 (130mmOLD) pl
Will do, Paul. I hope to have it done in the next week or so--already
ironed out some technical issues (that can be the fun of vintage parts).

*"The way I understand it, in a double crankset with a guard, the big ring

Your perfectly sane. The middle ring position on a triple should allow
access to all the cogs.

I think calculating:
The front chainline for the outer and inner rings of the doubleand
comparing them to
The rear chainline for the #5 sprocket (mid point of a 9s)
AND THEN calculating which sprocket lines up with the 2 rings will give the
minimal wear combination.
Then assumi
Thank you, friends. You guys are so kind to cheer me on! Killer Hill isn’t much
fun, but it does build endurance, as well as thighs that could be lethal
weapons! Ha!

That is a fantastic achievement.I'm glad your bike helped you enjoy the
joys, and help you get thru the lows. You get everything done that you've
put your mind to doing!
Also, for everyone else, I've seen Killer Hill in person. BBDD aptly
named that. Way to go, Leah!

Congratulations on your 2020 mileage. My condolences about your dad. And
I've viewed that Platypus frame on Grant's blog and it looks fantastic.
Once you get that set up the way you like it you'll no doubt be riding
even more miles next year!

Leah, I have said it before, but I am so sorry about yor Dad.
Congratulations on a great achievement and I am glad a Rivendell bike has
helped you this year. Here’s to many more miles of cycling enjoyment.

At the beginning of 2020 (back when we were so naive and hopeful) I set an
ambitious goal for myself: 2,020 miles in 2020. This may seem small to some
of you, but I live out in suburbia, surrounded by punishing
hills/mountains, and there are few places to go out here. Most trips
require a car.
