If he told the her that a road triple (50x40x30 in the front) often has some trouble working well with brifters and she'd be better off with a compact double with its 34F x 28R low, then so far, not such bad advice. But that doesn't complete the story. Lower gears than that are still possible (on a "road" bike) in a way that does NOT lead to mechanical headaches. We all know. Shouldn't they? They work in bikes. I don't.
The word is increasingly getting out. I'm seeing more and more cassettes with 36T large sprockets mated to compact doubles on the bikes my friends ride.
