| My boyfriend made me take off the triple on my first road bike and go with the double! But I just put a bigger cogset on the back! If you do a double, I would recommend a 27 tooth on the back so you have more gears for climbing. I would say what you choose depends on how strong of rider you are, and how you are at climbing hills. If you don't have a lot of hill climbing experience, don't feel like you're strong at them, and don't have a lot of confidence, then go with the triple. Seriously, no shame in that! And whether you choose a triple or double, it is not a choice for the life of the bike. It is expensive, but you can change at any time. Also, you really don't have to pay attention to what is on the bike when you're looking at buying one, more than likely the shop can swap it out for you before you even take it home. Good luck Janet!
