Re: "That in the end is much cheaper than putting on a triple, and much more functional than putting a 12-32 mtb cassette on."
-------------------------------------
So back to my question from earlier- is the argument against the triple only cost-based? If I was to buy a new tri bike and spec'ed it with a triple so I only paid the delta cost from a double it would actually be cheaper than going with the FSA compact double (or maybe a wash). I still don't get the advantage of the compact double over a triple. What am I missing? (I'm not bashing or trolling- I really think I'm missing something here).
