At our age everyone needs some ironing. what I did when I built the Tarmac was get a SRAM WIFI rear derailleur. When I got the wheels built the builder said they had good luck with a 11x36 rear casette. I knew it would take a 32 because that was why I bought it. But now I have wheels with 12x25, 12x27, 11x28, 11x32 and 11x36. 34x36 is as good as my MTB gears.
