Anne -- if you are asking me, you're asking the wrong guy. I haven't a clue! I was just sort of thinking that "fast" road bikes usually are fitted with doubles. I have a canti-Rom fitted with a triple that I consider my "fast" roadie, but have often wondered if there is a significant difference (weight, etc.) with a true roadie configuration.
On that last note, do any of you have an opinion on the Roadeo vs. Romulus? Is the former all that much more of a road bike? I've been wondering, and I'm not techie enough to know what I was looking at if I pulled up the geo's. Thanks.

Can someone explain why I would have wanted a compact double instead? I thought I wouldn't have been able to get a wide enough gear range with a double, compact or otherwise. -- -- Anne Paulson My hovercraft is full of eels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
