I rode Fromme today, and as far as North Shore climbs go, Mtn. Highway has to be one of the easiest.  I noticed I was not using my bail out gear like I did when I had the 34t ring.  I guess I may be able to drop another cog on the cassette if/when I switch to a 28t ring, but honestly this is not the climb I want a lower gear for...  I think the 28t ring will make climbing No Quarter, the Burke fire road or Old Buck a whole lot more enjoyable.

Yes, I am going to appreciate the 28 on those climbs.  28x46 is a bit low for GSM though

Umm,

NSB - made in Whistla’

AB - Made in Poland I think (maybe you’re from there? I don’t know!)

Point: probably NSB

Price? Well they both have one. I think in Canada it’s a smaller one for NSB. 

Point: probably NSB but to be honest I didn’t check 

That’s actually all I could come up with.

Ha! Well done.
