Urgent Angry Doctor advice needed.

Chris S's picture

By Chris S - Posted on 11 September 2009

I've been renewing parts of my drivetrain this week and I haven't been able to find a granny ring for an XTR crank any where in Sydney.

The question is, do I go pro and run just the two rings, our are the hills going to be that bad that I put an old Race Face triple crank on that’s seen better days.

Any advice before 8pm today would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Chris

there are a lot of hills to contend with and I'd be recommending a granny ring but if you're fit and strong then middle should do you, worst case is walking a few hills if you have to.

Friend of mine rode the first 50 yesterday - said it was pretty "hilly".
