I know this subject has been beaten to death so I am not going to ask about the pros and cons. What I am interested in is anyone that has gone from a triple to a compact, has your front Dr shifting gone down or up?

I have a Campy triple 30/42/53 with 13-26 cassette and I am in the middle chain ring 95% of the time. However, on really fast rides when I am pushing as hard as I can, I will spin out in the middle chain ring and need to switch to the big chain ring and I am trying to avoid doing this. if I had a 50/34 with a 12-29, I would have the same range as I do now with slighly farther jumps in between gears at the top of the cassette. I was thinking that I could stay in the big chain ring and I wouldn't spin out. Or, I could just replace the cassette on my triple to a 12-25 or 11-25 and I wouldn't spin out in the middle chain ring.

For those of you that have gone from the triple to the compact, do you miss the triple at all?
