[DVBC] Compact Cranks

[Debbie Chaga]

Nancy,

I absolutely *LOVE* my compact crank set.  It took a little while to get
used to because the gearing is different than what I had before, but I find
I'm riding my better.  I haven't met a hill yet that I couldn't get up.  The
gearing is 50/34 and  I had either an 11 - 27 or 12 - 27 cassette put on and
I find that's plenty to get up the hills.  On my Raleigh I had a 52/42/32 on
the front and I hardly ever used the 52 or the 32.  Pretty much I just used
7 gears.  Now I use all of my gears.

Debbie
