Currently looking at new bikes, and was thinking, as I am not getting any younger and thinking of the future, of getting an e-bike. It would be a road bike something like a Gain.
Looking at a lot of these bikes they appear to be going single front chainring (admittedly not all of them) but a lot.
So my question to anyone who has first hand experience of going from a double / triple to a single is do you spin out?
Most of the ones I have looked at are 44-11 at their toughest. My old triple is 42-11 on the middle ring which quite frequently isn't enough but of course you have the luxury of going up to the big ring.
Just wondering if people who have made the change have anything to input.
