Me too! I have a 50/34 and my 50/36 I don't have an issue climbing on ether version but am simply not strong enough for a lack of better words to use the 50 in the smaller cassette gears. I know 48 isn't a huge change but I bet getting down the cassette will be just a touch better. I am going to try it....I don't need to descend at 45mph for any reason anymore!
