Lib Technologies T. Rice MTX Snowboard

August 26, 2008

The T-Rice and the Custom are relatively the same as far as stiffness. The T-Rice is a little wider. I would recommend getting the same size or relatively close though. You don't want to play around too much with that.

Answer to: "Is this bike available in a 3 ring set for 30 gears total? "

Pinarello Galileo Ultegra Road Bike

July 27, 2008

No it is now, only 2 ring.

Most road bikes are going to a compact-double design and shying away from having a triple front chainring. It decreases weight, and almost any gear ranges that you need are available in a 34-50T crankset and 11-23 cassette.
