Hi,

I have a 2010 Trek 1.5 that has a 9 speed SRAM PG-950 casette on the rear (11-26). I'm about to tackle some very hilly terrain and would like to get a few more teeth in the big ring but I can't seem to find any bigger than a 26. Any body know of anything I can do (will a MTB 11-32 PG-950 fit or would that just be ridiculous)?

I know I should just dig deep and get on with it but I'm rubbish on the hills.

Thanks

    Ultegra 12-27 - Merlin had the best price last time I bought one but they are currently out of stock

    CRC has them though

    If you go to 11-32 you'll need a 9spd MTB mech ( if you run Shimano sti) or a Sram Apex mech (if you run Sram sti)

    I'm happy to miss out on the closer ratios for a wider spread.
