Yes you're totally right, I've managed to spring it to 130 before. I just can;t splash out on a 9 speed campag groupset just yet. I would love to in the future though.
My main priority with this one is to get a decent range for city, and some country cycling. I live around a slightly hilly part of London, so there's a bit of climbing here and there, nothing major. I'd like to go higher than 29T, but I guess that's not too bad for climbing really...?
