Well mainly because I am interested in this new gearing for the EC and less because of the tour but will likely use the set up on the tour as well. I posted here because I didn't want to get a bunch of response about peoples use of triples and such. I really want to keep as much of my existing drivetrain intact, and felt like my drivetrain is likely more similar to people around this board. Maybe not.
