That a pretty big range, 30/34 is useful if you're fully loaded, bikepacking or just a single pair of panniers 11-28 is more than doable.

Yeah you're probably right, to be fair I got a little over-excited with the possibilities. "Go large or go home" crossed my mind when deciding on what to run here.
It's not without some thought though.
On the one hand I don't get time to put enough miles in these days to be in top form come the summer, on the other hand every time I get given time to go touring I want to take the scenic/mountainous route. This time around the scenic, mountainous, and gravelly. My experience being I'll probably need a little help at some point.

Nobody ever came back from the mountains regretting that they never needed their biggest sprocket.

New drivetrain for my Wolverine light tour/cx/commuter thing: 46/30 at the front and 11-34 at the rear. Should get me over most things.
