Re: Compact crankset versus triple

I checked Excel and could only find the Tiaga version. They mention it's
also available in the Ulegra, but I couldn't find it. I emailed them, and
they responded saying they do not carry the Ulegra version. Are you sure
yours isn't Tiagra?

Re. Kunich's comment, I just bought an Ultegra junior 9-speed cassette
(Excel has them in stock). 14-15-16-17-18-19-21-23-25, kind of
two-thirds corncob with the usual lower gears. Like others here, I
only use the 12 on two or three short 40mph downhills a week, and I
don't really need it or the 13. It seems to me that almost every
amateur would be better off with a 16 than a 12.--Shayana Kadidal

Oh, oh, last time I said that we saw tons of opposition telling us that
there was no way you could place in the top 100% without an 11 tooth.

Word. I phoned them up to buy it. The website says that the Ultegra is
also available, you just can't order it online, apparently.--Shayana

No one said that, or even close. Metcalf said he "needed" an 11t for
a specific event. No one is going to forget what was wrote. So
don't think a little passage of time will permit a complete distortion
of history to suit your fancy.

Metcalf was a pro rider in case you forgot. After Kevin said that there were
OCCASSIONALLY races in which he needed an 11, two thirds of you idiots
thereby concluded that your legs could turn them over and you would need one
on any racing you did as well.

Don't think that your idiocy is going to be forgotten because of the passage
of time. And the history contained in Google.

He was a Cat 1 and he got beat that day by an 50-something old Scott Hennessy (sp?).

Good grief.

Okay then. Post that "history."
