I live in one of the hilliest areas of the UK. I have a new bike on order, and have specified a triple, to enable me to spin a little more on some of the steeper hills.
I just think that a lot of this debate is about ego.
It seems to me that a triple has many advantages. The only real disadvantages centre on weight (what difference do a few grammes make?), and image. Unless you are racing at the top level, the advantages must outweigh the disadvantages.
