The endless discussions of set ups in the letters pages combined with articles on the subject by Chris Juden.
Or by Peter Knottley? His advice for a 'cycletouring' set up was a TA 48/26T double, with the 13–24 Regina 5-speed freewheel. For laden touring (he said) take the 24 off the back of the block and fit a 28. It did work, but you had to plan changes between rings carefully.
Yes! Who can forget the excitement of fitting a SunTour MTB triple to their road bike in place of those flimsy TA Cyclotourist setups!
