i am thinking of changing one of my bike to a more d/h type machine. I only use it on uplifts at inners etc and for riding in the alps. In the alps i only use the lifts up and bike down. There is the odd (mile or two) ocassion when i have to bike it on the flat.
Currently it has 3 rings at the front (22T, 32T & 44T) with a 9 speed 11 – 34T cassette
i have two options as i see it;
1. Single ring at front with bash and chain device
2. Double ring at front with bash
what would be my best option?
and what size ring (or rings) up front and possibly a different cassette?
i am sure if i understood gear ratios i could work it out myself but i don't!
thanks
