if you need the low gear to get up the hill, you need the low gear to get up the hill - you can always just spin out on the downhills... if you want more range, well, how about fitting a rohloff...?

54/33 chainring could be a solution

Lots of people go down cos they are past the stage of smashing it everywhere, going up to 58/60 is easy fun.

I've been looking at switching up gearing for a m6l.. and see a lot of mention of running a 44t chainring. Surely this gives barely any good top end? With the stock ring the highest gear doesn't feel that high? Unless something is not sitting right with the gearing of course! Any suggestions?
