The installation is complete (FSA SL-K light triple, SRAM X.9 RD, Ultegra triple FD) and a longer chain as I left the 11-32 cassette. My LBS accepted a new SRAM 12-28 cassette in trade for an Ultegra 12-30 which I expect will be my everyday gearing.

Took the first ride on Saturday, 60 miles with 4400' of climbing. The 30-32 combination was plenty low enough and I expect 30-30 to be fine as well. Didn't quite have the RD dialed in so the 32t cog was a bit of hit or miss; somehow things always shift differently on the bike versus the stand. FD shifting with my Campy shifters was also very good. I couldn't use the double K-edge chain catcher so order a triple version online.

I could easily see going smaller than 30t up front at some point since that chain ring is strictly bailout, but time will tell.

All this is very individual. I do think the standard 34t is a bit low. 50-36 would appeal if I were 10 years younger and combined with 12-30 would get up most hings.
