I ran46/36 with 12-28 on a front loaded touring bike, work great and got me over all the mountain. Spain threw at me in the last couple of days, however it would be perfect if I have 12-30 so I have a gear spare if the worse come to worse, 11-32 will be fine.
I love the 46/36 combo, it's very much the tourer version of the old 52/42 chainset on road bike, it's nice to drop the front derailleur and find the perfect cadence without dropping 2 or 3 sprocket on the rear.
Like other said, it shift amazing, especially when you're hauling.
