Oh, here's the gearing chart. I've looked over and can seen the shifting pattern and all, but the problem is I suppose I don't have much of a "feel" as it were for what the numbers are illustrating. And, according to what I'm reading on other sites, unless I misunderstand, it seem the 36/47/52 set up has "all over the place" shifting, it's kinda complicated, and there's redundancy.

Okay. Well, I tried getting the chart up here, but it's not working. Wanted to show the math, eh. I used Sheldon Brown's gear calcumalator.
