First of all ,English is my first language. I know the use of punctuation and the purpose of it. It's extremely ott that you lot are going crazy over it. Clearly you can understand it. It's just ur ignorance to ignore it or think that just because this person isn't using punctuation, that means its pointless the to answer or read. Because this person is stupid or can't speak English well or something else negative. Come on we are on the internet were u dont need to go all pedantic about this. You can all understand it well. However I have released most of you guys are over a certain age where there is not such thing of internet speaking and they can't understand anything without punctuation. Lets get back to the main subject now because talking about punctuation on a cycling forum is just plain ridiculous now. Getting back to the subject I was happy was cycling on the gear that i was on until i was told that i was cross chaining and cross chaining is bad. However, the cheapest triban bike with a compact group set is £600 and i am not spending that much money it as I do lock my bike up a lot in London. And i was thinking or getting a compact but it might end up being close to £200 the price of the sora groupset on
ribble because i need two whole shifter. Not due to the compact crank i know i need one, but I need them because, they are bent. And I do pedal quite fast I'm not a slow cyclist except on hills thats way i find it too easy to just pedal on the gear i was on to have a better chainline and if i go on the top crank lower gear i will find it ok to hard and this all depends on the elevation and the wind speeds too.
