Any advice on this gratefully received...have just bought a double chainset but it's not a compact (had a compact til now). I am fine on the hills generally but just wondering if I will notice the difference much and if so whether I should opt for a different cassette from the usual 12-25 - say 12-27/28?? Chain reaction have a selection (link attached) and I am being offered one on this forum. The kit on the bike is pretty much 105 throughout.
Thanks alot
