I'm confident you can set up the Rene Herse double with those ratios.

So I am planning a winter build of a new road bike and am getting a
list of what parts I want to put on it. I am stuck a bit on what I
want to do with the crankset. I know I want to go compact double but
that's about it. I don't mind spending some cash but don't want to
spend silly money either. My ideal would have been the Sugino Alpina
that VO used to sell in 48/34. That seems to be gone and there are
very few Sugino 48/34 offering and most are lower quality. So if I
give up on finding 48/34 my options open up a but with the 50/34
group. The Alpina is available but only the Alpina 2 which I think is
slightly lower quality. There is also the IRD Defiant in that group
that gets really good reviews but also has a very different look.
That crankset is actually available in a wide 46/30 range which
sounds very useful but not sure how that would work for mostly road
riding conditions.
Any advice on nice 48/34 square BB offerings? What about the 50/34?
IRD, Sugino....other nice offerings. I like the WI cranks but they
get too expensive in the long run. Anyone use that wide range 46/30?
Thanks!!
