Is the above going to be a problem to source? Brief checks at Merlin and CRC show lots of compact but only Q Rings at £150 a pop for 53/39.

Thank you!

    You can go 52 on a 110 from praxis IRC. may be worth a nose

    I like being of near use but no use

    Top stuff - cheers guys, much appreciated.

    Almost tempted to run a 63 just for comedy value.

    As: being of near use is far, far better than most of the no use I encounter on a daily basis .......... :D

    The 63t is sold out there and is pricey (not because that shop is pricey, but because its a 63t).

    What front mech would you use to handle that? I have never seen or used a front mech that goes above 54t I am sure.

    Don't give me ideas. :oops: I only just got a 52-38-24 chainset working properly with a 11-32t. :twisted:

    It makes the 50-39-30 + 12-25t I started out on look positively "useless". :lol: Well it was for me because I could not ride up one single hill in the lowest gear. Unless every ride was to become a HIIT session. :roll:
