Hi all hope you can help and this isnt a stupid question.
Silly as this may sound I have been riding a double the on my commute bike the last couple of years thinking it was a compact (because thats what I was sold from the lbs). Been struggling with a hill on the way home that I can do fine on the other bike. Just got the wife a new bike with a compact and noticed a big difference in the sizes. Quick look on line an yep I have an ultegra double.
So my question is can I put the small ring from a compact (£20) on my double or do I need to buy a compact (£160).
Many thanks
Elliott
