On 08/25/2014, Mark Manner wrote Power-Tap Ghisallo on loop ride outside, 65 degees, sunny and a little wind. Very nice to be outside in these conditions. I didn't feel very energetic, as I was up late last night with guests and didn't sleep well. I needed to see if the triple I bought fit the bike (or send it back), so I put it on and rode it today. It shifts very well, and it is nice to have the narrower gaps between gears. It adds about 1/2 pound or less to the overall weight. However, the Q factor on the triple is about 13 mm wider than the double, and the increase in stance width was definitely noticeable. I am putting the double back on for the time being, but when I use the triple again later this year on Mt. Washington (and maybe on Everest Challenge), I will try to move my cleats a bit to take up some of the difference. I can't get it all removed, but I bet I can eliminate about 1/2 of the difference.
