Had a ss mountain bike which I used all summer, I got rid of it and no really regret it, I have a road bike that is surplus at the moment due to a new bike.
Im tempted to convert it to ss as I miss the grind, the route I use consists of large continuous flat runs and then a few 300 ft hill climbs, I did this no problem on my mtb with a 2:1 ratio.
It doesn't seem right spinning out on a road bike though, however I do feel I've lost something in the way of strength/fitness since I got rid of my ss.
Anyone ride a mixture of hills and flats happily on a ss road bike and what's your gear ratio?
Thanks
