Except for the SRAM 12-32 with 12-13-14-15-16-17-19-21-24-32 which lets compact double riders with 10 cogs have the same range and gear spacing in the cruising range they had on a 53-39-28 x 13-14-15-16-17-19-21-23-26 9 cog road triple but with more double shifting and fewer SKUs for SRAM to make/stock/etc.
