I am looking for more aggressive. At the time of purchase of the OCR, I had no idea what different geometries meant.
Yes, the OCR is currently a triple. The crankset on the Cannondale is a 53-39. If I'm going to spend $200, I'd rather add it in towards the cost of the Cannondale frame that includes an unused crankset. What kind of weight savings do you guess I'd get from the OCR/Truvativ triple crank to the Cannondale/carbon double crank?
