I rode today and had to use the 40tooth when I accidentally took the baby on SingleTrack and up a hill! I don’t know if it would do 42. I am bad at estimating these things and tend to just try and if it fails it fails. On the other hand you could just use a slightly smaller front ring. -J --

As we graduate to more hauling of stuff and less joyriding I have a 28ish ring on there. As it stands my wife and I aren’t comfortable with riding out of our neighborhood so in order to mileage I have to drive the bike to a place to ride. This avoids most hills so far. Plus I did some pretty imp
