Out of necessity I swapped out the 105 triple for a lower geared FSA to help with the hills around here. A lot depends on the individual needs and preferences. These are tools to be used for specific purposes - Road Racing, Cross, Touring, Commuting, Mountain Bike, etc.

I want something that helps me get up the hills, carry a load and go the distance. The OP may be trying to scratch an itch that only s/he gets.
