buying a rear SRAM cassette. regular set up is 11-23, what about a hilly sportive setup. 11-25 (on a compact 50/34) or 11-26. I'm told on a 11-27 shifting between rings isn't as smooth with the difference in gearing between rings.

any advice well appreciated. first bike build ever. going with SRAM set up.

thank you
