Currently I'm riding DA triple 53/39/30 with 12/27. Mostly ride hills in the 39. Rarely in granny except real steep ascents. Was contemplating going to compact 52/36 to get some more spin while climbing and perhaps going to 12-30 on separate wheels when doing runs on exceptionally steep climbs or long rides. Do you see any real advantage or disadvantages???
I'm 57 riding Lemond Tete de Course and weigh about 138.
