That's encouraging to hear. I am finacially challenged right now (graduating this spring) so saving money by not having to pick up another bike would be helpful. I suppose I should consider a beefier wheel than my Ksyrium sl's though.
Touring would most likely be in France and maybe UK, not sure about terrain, but do you think a triple would be my best bet, or would I got compact double with a wider cassette? Again in the interest of using parts I already have. Thanks for the response.
