50/34 11-27 will get me up any grade I've come across. Granted I don't live near any mountains, but I do have bikes and will travel to the Blue Ridge and/or the Rockies. I rode up Magnolia outside Boulder with 39-28, 500 miles along the Blue Ridge Highway on 34-28, and up Roan Mountain on 34-27.
No KOM's but I do enjoy having to "push" my way up a difficult climb.
