Ugh, pedants. Almost nothing worse.

They didn't run a 32T in the 80s because that had 5 or 6 cogs on the cassette. The spacing would be ridiculous. Tony Martin can pair an 11-32 with a 58T and run a 1X11 TT bike, because there are 11 gears in the back and not 5 or 6. He has a bigger gear range as they did in the 80s... only he shifts through them with little buttons.
