I am growing older and alright fatter. But my desire to go up hill remains the same.
I would like to get to a 34 tooth front and rear combo.
My options are. (Since Campy does not have an 11speed 11/34
1. Shimano free hub.. ($100) and Shimano 11/34 ($60) add a wolf tooth ($20)
2. Shimano free hub.. ($100) and Shimano 11/34 ($60) change to 12 speed deraileur ($180- Ebay)
or
3. Switch to a 48/32 Chorus Crankset. ($300)
With the Shimano I maintain my top speed and gain slightly more spacing at the small end of the block. But with the crank swap I maintain respect from Tulio Campagnolo.. Wll I miss the high end ?? I checked the Q factor and in the docs they are both listed at 145.5
Anybody done this ??''' Thanks

I'm using the Chorus 48/32 on my gravel/all-road bike with a Chorus 11-32 (11-speed). The 48/32 Chorus crankset lists as a 12-speed design, but it works great. Double-check to see if you would have to change rear derailleurs if you went to a 34t cogset.
