Just offer ,the thing you do when the gaps between ratios are not 1t small, is .. if the next lower gear feels too low,

slow down a bit till it feels right .. its not a race ,

but the gear that they develop
to compete with the other companies , also making components for a competing race team,
sell the rabble/Tifosi, Race fans on their needing the same kit , thru marketing and advertising ..

Seems to work with all the people posting here, wanting to Upgrade (certainly up cost) the components on their bikes .

and selling new stuff keeps the wheels of the industry spinning ..


the change your pace to match the gear that feels right for the terrain you are on , is a different Approach

the tourist ~ pootle along and enjoy the scenery, scheme. YMMV of course..
