The thought of spinning at 120rpm in the 16x34 and only going 28.6 km/h kinda scares me!
It seems that most stock SS MTBs come with either 16 or 17 cogs and 32 or 34 cranks, so I'm definitely in the 'traditional' zone.
I may have to copy you and do your nifty double chainring trick or something.

I'm 42/14 for the street, going to try 38/15 for the snow, or go 38/13 if needed.
For some double chainring s/s bling 38/35
