I'm still deciding between the Deore trekking crankset and a sugino xd 46/36/24 but I've got an 11-28 9-speed cassette on right now...may tighten it up to 12-25. If I go with drops it will likely be Nitto Noodle. I've always ridden 10 miles or less but I want to start taking part in local events and jump into 20, 30 and more mile rides. My hands hurt after 10 miles so I'm considering drop bars for the longer rides with v-brake compatible road levers.
