Gearing on the Dew or Expert?

Both have wide range rears;11-34. The Dew has a road triple 52/42/30 while the Expert has a touring triple 48/36/26. Not a huge difference;the Dew has a slight edge on speed while the Expert will spin up hills and dig into mud/snow a little better. Both have good all-round gearing.

Only thing to add about the Expert is the website shows a sliver fork and mine's black,so IMHO it looks better in real life than on the site. Once I get my fenders and mount them I'll update that other thread I had.
