weaning from the granny gear
I am very dependent on the granny gear when climbing hills. I'd like to get rid of my triple, but that would require standing up to climb in a lower gear (or moving to a flatter neck of the woods). I have tried getting out of the saddle, but I can't seem to do it for more than 20-30 seconds before I have to sit back down and spin, baby, spin. Any advice?
