Yeah, 11-36 with 48 would be pretty nice on most flattish roads I think. People worry about spinning out at the top end but you'd be doing over 55 kph on 48/11 at 100 rpm... I for one absolutely do not pedal when I'm hitting those speeds, just tuck up and get ready to grab the brakes

Yeah this is why I’m thinking 48:11-40

Basically the same range as 50-34:11-28

It’s the same range, but with lots of gaps in that range. Plus realistically, using the lowest gear can only be an occasional treat as the drivetrain will protest, very noisily.
