Do you ever use the big ring on that Raleigh? Do you want to have a crankset without a big gear on a road bike?
Actually, I don't use the big ring, we have lots of hills around here, and I need the bottom end more then the top end. Once I get working again, I'll repair the Norco and probably retire the Raleigh to trainer use.....
