Ah... excellent. No, it's not but mine is geared lower than that on the Giant.
The chain rings, though... a different story and the well-known smoking gun. Maybe.
Seems Giant's on line catalog and descriptions might not be a good match for reality.
For example, they list SRAM components but the bike I rode had Ultegra.
On top of that, they do NOT show an OCR C2 Triple -only a double- and the one I rode was a triple.
So, what was the gearing up front? I have no idea but for the OCR C3 Triple, they list 50/39/30 and my LeMond is 52/42/30. Hmm now. OK, that explains a lot if that's how it was configured.
