When riding my fuji comp cross on grass, dirt, etc. I'm generally in the small chain-ring and often in the larger cogs in back.

I'm rarely in the large chain-ring, except when I'm on pavement or off pavement going down-hill.

Should I consider a larger rear cluster? What size?

thanks.

what are u running now? 12/25 is very common for cross, and 12/27 is good too. sometimes i run an 11/23 if the course is fairly flat/fast.
