• In reality you don't even have 22 gears.. Effectively it's more like 14 or 15 gears. So there's hardly a difference.

    Especially when going from 50/34 + 11-28 cassette to a 44 + 10-42 cassette. The range is the same, you just have less parts to go wrong (and easier shifting)

  • Well no not really, if you go from 14 to 11 gears the jumps between gears only get a little bigger.. And if you're not crit racing I don't see the problem.

    But maybe go back to triple cranksets?
