will their be a noticible differance if i went from a 39 x 53 chain set to the compact chain set on the caad10 105 in terms of would it feel any differant when i pedal ,
for example according to the gear ratios chart i looked at the 50x11 on the compact is bigger than the 53x12 on the standard , would i have to spin faster on the compact to get the same effect in terms of distance as on a larger chain ring ?
