Smallest possible triple with Altus front derailleur?
I'm converting my commuter bike to a dedicated hauler . Its a 2017 Marin Muriwoods 29er.
I already have minimal to no use for the 4 biggest gears. And, as a dedicated hauler, they will be virtually useless and I will have more need for better mobility and smaller ratios with loads-- especially on inclines.
The bike is Currently running a 48/38/28 and a 9spd 11-32 with and Altus front derailleur and an Alivio 9spd in the rear.
What is the smallest triple that will be compatible with this set up?
Thanks for any input and advice.
Jeff
