Even the modern stuff struggles with that big a jump. Really curious to see this mate, seems like you've thought out ever aspect of the bike in accordance to how you ride. What chainrings did you use?
Isn’t 16t is normal thought? (50/34 for instance), it’s the Rene Herse 3 bolts chainring, gonna ordered a 48/32 for the flatter route soon.
I still haven’t seen the bike yet.
My bad, end of day brain drain. Was thinking MTB as that's what I'm trying to balance out at the moment. 48-38 vs 38-28 choices.
