Just curious- which chain ring set do you have? 22-32-44 or 26-36-48.
I'm assuming your largest ring is too big to be useful enough of the time, thus spend most your time on the middle. That's the same with me BTW.

Have you considered going to a smaller BIG ring that may be more useful?
I changed my 22-32-44's to 22-32-36/38 on my 2 bikes.
A bad knee, emphysema and old age prevent me from turning more gear inches. I use the 32 around town and shift to the big ring when I get the opportunity to "cruise".
Shifting isn't "pristine", but it shifts.
