Jur, you need to go look at your bike.

There is MORE tension when I am in big-front and small-back, then when I front-shift only to middle-front and small-back (which Sheldon says is taboo).

If, what you are trying to imply is that if I shift from big-front and small-back to middle-front and small back, that my bike will implode because of the pedaling tension, you need to get real.

I understand that my big 44-tooth distributes load better (has more teeth), but don't give me that BS that my 32-tooth middle can't handle running with my smallest cog, especially if my chainline is fine with this combination.

My tension is just fine, thank you. And there is no need to yell.
