I don't know about that but I'll take any complements I can get.
Actually I have a Nervar Star with "Alpine" 52-40 rings in front so low gear is now a 40/34, 31.5 gear inches but at least I wasn't riding no sissy triple
(Now somebody will probably point out that I had Look clipless pedals instead of some manly clips and straps but oh well, you can't please everybody.)
