If you need more than a 34 + 32T, something is wrong.

There isn't too many sustained 20+% grades out there.


I run a 34/30 - I wouldn't say something is wrong - maybe you live in a boring flat area, we have hills and mountains here

I think the point was that you *can* run a 32 rear. Which, as far as my rudimentary mathematic expertise goes, is a 30+ tooth option.
