I could only see those new smaller rings, if you have a LOT of REALLY BIG hills where you normally ride. But that 26 and the big cog in the back, should get you up almost anything. Especially on paved surfaces - a lot of dirt would be different.
Thanks. But I need to change my rings even though I don't have a problem with them because I'm changing to shorter cranks and can only choose between 22-32-42 or 22-32-44t (44t alloy). So I'd like to have some advice on the pros and cons of each
