Hi. Further to my earlier post about replacing the drivetrain on my Surly Long Haul Trucker.I was looking at what components to get. I want to get a SRAM PC971 chain, Shimano Deore HG50 Cassette (basically the same as what was on there to be replaced) but I want to replace the chainset. At the moment it is a Andel 110mm BCD 48-36-22. I want to replace with a Shimano Alivio 4 arm square taper M410 42-32-22.
Does anyone know if this will be compatable with the Surly LHT? I am no expert on bike mechanics, but it works out cheaper for me to order this from the UK (i'm traveling in Canada at the moment) and have a LBS to fit it for me, than to get the parts from Canada. (crazy i know.) Anyway, I want to make sure these components will go together before I order. I assume the fewer teeth on the bigger chainrings as a good thing, because I ride real slow and stay in low gears anyway.
Thanks
