Oh, I see. I promise that if I choose to tackle the steepest climbs in any particular geographic area, I'll bring a low gear. If I had to grab one of my bikes down off the hook right now and do Welch Road, I suppose I'd choose the Hillborne which has a 23" low gear. The Bombadil has an 18" low, but it weighs 40 pounds. The drivetrain on my Black Mountain is pretty flexible. I could have it geared down in the 22" range in about 20 minutes with parts on the shelves in my garage. It's always good to be prepared.
