A 34 tooth ring for your compact crank might only cost $18.00 to $25.00. That'll only give you a hillclimb gear that's a couple of inches lower but it'll only cost you $9.00 to $12.50 per gear inch.

Good point, I think I will try out the 34 and see how that goes. From what i can tell, the only place that sells a 34 with a 110 BCD is Harris cyclery. Right?
