Actually, it's not really quiche gears as it's 1 x 8.
Quiche gears was some yacf-ers phrase coined for doubles that have a big ring of 42T or smaller. None of this "REAL MEN MUST HAVE A 50T BIG RING" nonsense.
Mostly for long (i.e. Audax length) rides where you'd end up either flitting between big and small rings too often or using all of the gears with awful chainlines.
What does this mean?
