Where are you supposed to cruise on your front rings and rear cassette if you have a cc? In the big ring while in the middle of the cassette?
If so, then according to the Sheldon calculator, based on my cruising area of my XD2 triple/9-speed cassette setup's gear inches, I would need a 30/42 compact crankset to cruise in the middle area of the big ring of a cc and then use the 30 ring for me little gears. Staying in the big one would minimize front shifting, too. I don't need more than 100 inches, so 42 x 11 would be fine as my big inches combo. I don't think I would spin out of it. Is this how I should do it? Just wundrin' if I ever want to give it a try. I had a used bike once with a 34-50/ 12-28 (I think) that didn't work well because I had to live on the small ring, and still didn't have anything small enough for the steep stuff.
