I had a pretty wide cassette like that, and liked it for about two days, until I started to hate and detest it. Sure, there are lots of different gearing combinations, but each one is pretty far from all of the rest of them. When my cadence or heart rate was a little high, I'd shift into the next gear, and then it would be drastically low ... the cassette rarely had the right gear. Have you used an 11-32 before?
