Road Bike Front
what is better in crank set for the front and the rear gear of the road bike?

please explain to me whats the different between the COMPACT - DOUBLE - TRIPLE crank set and the 50/34 chain ring etc. i cant get whats the difference between these three cranks. god its giving me a headaches.. please answers this question i really wanted to know. and also the 11-23 or 12-25 cog set... don't understand that things.

this might be funny but I'm a newbie in building and set-up for road bike. because i wanna challenge myself to build on.

thanks i appreciate the help.

NOTE: please explain it very simple as you can. I'm stupid to understand very hard details. THANKS

First, let's talk about the front. The front gears are called chain rings. If you have two, you have a DOUBLE. If you have three, you have a TRIPLE. The size of the chain rings is specified by the number of teeth on the gear. The most common DOUBLE configuration is the big has 52 teeth and the small gear has 39. As you make the big gear larger, you get more speed and less power. This is good for going down hills. As you make the small gear smaller, you get more power and less speed. That is good for going up hills. The most common TRIPLE configuration is the big gear has 52 teeth, the middle gear has 39 teeth, and the smaller gear has 30 teeth. A COMPACT DOUBLE reduces the size of both chain rings to increase power with a small decrease in speed. The most common COMPACT DOUBLE configuration is the big gear has 50 teeth and the small gear has 34 teeth. Manufacturers claim that a COMPACT DOUBLE eliminates the need for a TRIPLE. Not all people agree with them.

Next, let's talk about the back. The back has a cluster of gears called cogs. The cluster of cogs is called a cassette. When numbers are given, they are the size of the smallest and largest cogs in the cassette. So, in a 12-25 the smallest cog has 12 teeth and the largest has 25 teeth. As you make the smallest cog smaller, you get more speed and less power. As you make the biggest cog larger, you get more power and less speed.

Most manufacturers make DOUBLES, COMPACT DOUBLES, and TRIPLES, but not across their entire product line. All manufacturers make a variety of cassettes.

My road bike has a 52-39-30 triple and a 12-27 cassette, just to give you a point of reference.

Tommaso Mondial Road Bike 1.0 Blue 47cm
USD 1117.99
 
The new Tommaso Mondial Road Bike has been getting a lot of attention and with good reason! Tommaso took a double butted aluminum frame, added a great performing carbon fork and then dressed the bike up with amazing components. The Mondial takes Tommaso performance to the next level with proven Shimano Ultegra components, stiff FSA cranks, trusty Alex rims, Tommaso TRS handlebar, stem and seat post, and the San Marco Ponza Power saddle. Consider this bike your training companion. From the after work group ride, the epic long hauls to racing on the weekend, the Tommaso Mondial will provide miles of dependability and excitement. Consumers and the bike industry have nothing but praise for Shimano s Ultegra group. Every year Ultegra inherits the best qualities of the Dura-Ace group but the price is almost half of its big brother. For years Ultegra has been providing solid performance and dependability at a price to performance ratio that can t be beat. Tommaso matched up the 10 speed Shimano Ultegra shifters with the amazingly reliable 105 front and Ultegra rear derailleur and Shimano 10 speed cassette. Putting all of this great technology in motion is the FSA compact Omega crank. Loved by the Elite athletes for its stiffness and praised by the press for its performance and value. With the 50/34 gearing the FSA Omega will take you anywhere the road goes. The beauty of the compact crank is its simplicity over a heavier triple crank while supplying the user a very user-friendly gear ratio that is easier to command. The FSA MegaExo bottom bracket is made up from two oversized external cartridge bearings. The larger bearings and their placement outside of the bottom bracket shell makes for stiffer cranks and better power distribution. Product Managers ReviewEvery now and then I get a moment to stop and write about a Tommaso bike that I love to ride.

The road triple has been a welcome component for those wanting to get up every hill easily, explore the flats and cruise down the speedy descents. Add that to the hand-friendly, light, aluminum ergo handlebars, Tommaso Racing saddle and Kenda tires and you have a winner! The Tommaso Frame Underneath the slick black paint of the Imola is a corrosion-free proprietary Tommaso compact aluminum frame that comes from the same design concepts found on the top of the line Tommaso bikes. Tommaso uses a compact geometry and detailed tubing lengths per frame size. This ensures that the rider gets the lightest, strongest, best performing and best fitting frame for the dollar.
