It looks like 46-30 cranks are a favorable of RBW owners (I've reviewed the group archive). I'm interested in getting the insight of folks that are using them in moderately hilly terrain on an unloaded road bike. I live in northern Connecticut and occasionally do mixed surface rides but bike isn't a "gravel bike"---second hand short reach custom road with 11-30 cassette and 700x30 tires. Is it worth a swap from a 50-34? Should I just toughen up and join Zwift? While most of my road riding is solo or with my young kids, will I be under geared on casual club rides? Will the less aggressive gearing be too much overlap with other bikes in my Riv stash---Homer with a triple; Legolas on order that I'm planning on specing with a 46-28 as a pure dirt road/CX bike?
