6700/6703. The triple is what makes it for me. The other two don't offer triples.
- My pure roadies are standard doubles, and I'm a solid 39-ring rider.
- A compact would have me shifting the front in the middle of every block.
- But, I need the granny for hauling groceries up the hill and slogging through the snow with the studded tires on.
For these reasons, all my commuting/errand bikes will always be triples.
