I'm hoping to build up a Salsa Vaya frame with a non-drop handlebar and mountain components. Salsa specifies that the frame "Fits any road compact double or triple" crankset.
Can someone explain what that implies? Specifically, what does "compact" mean and how does a "road" crankset differ from a "mtn" crankset?
I'd prefer to have 11-34 (or 11-36) on the rear and 44/32/22 on the front.
Thnx!
