DESCRIPTION

The Rambouillet's stock gearing is 48x36x26 in front, and 11x32 in back. You have more than enough high gear for anything, and your low gear is way, way lower than that on 99 percent of the road bikes out there. So it's a more useful bike for that reason, too. It's more comfortable. On most road bikes, you can't get the handlebar high enough. That's a HUGE demerit, because it means you're carrying more weight on your hands, and adding stress to your neck and lower back.
