I have been riding my new Trek 6500 for about a month now. This is a mountain bike that I ride on the road. I have replaced the tires with smaller road type tires. I find that most of my riding uses the largest gear up front and the four or five smallest gears in the back. I almost never have occation to use the middle front gear. I never use the small front gear.
Has anyone changed he three gears up front to eliminate the smallest and add a larger big gear. Is this possible, practical, easy?
Or should I look at changing the cassette in the back?
thanks,
Mark
