If'n you're not a natural climber, and you want to modify your N.R. cranks, triplizer is what you want. 52-42-24 on this rig, 13-32 in the rear. I really want to get to the top of Cypress this year without walking.
My Eroica ride this year
Not cheap, but a good investment if you want to use a vintage 144 BCD crankset
https://www.redclovercomponents.com/..._42_Teeth.html $106
Triplizer bolt kit $12
74mm BCD 24 tooth chainring can be found for
$10 in steel.
You'll need a longer bottom bracket, $25-40
