Cippolini was a sprinter and was infamous for never challenging on the climbs, prefering to cruise along with a cigarette in his mouth and save his legs for the flat stages.
Yep, Merlin USA were handmade titanium and famously used a selection of different wall thicknesses so that small frames had the same ride characteristics as the larger ones and were very expensive at...
The majority of the miles I do are on this -

I love those Scott Endorphin's and have had them on my Ebay watch list for years. They only ever come up in medium though and sometimes large and I suspect a medium would be slightly too big for me...

Yet Alberto Contador uses either a 30t or 32t cassette in the Grand Tours, depending on the stage of course...
If you are riding a MTB on the road then the inner 22t ring is pretty redundant, especially if you are using road tyres. Cassette's and chain rings are all about what you prefer and the riding you...
Eh? All Shimano cassettes are the same fitting so there's no reason you can't fit a larger one on the wheel you have. The only issue you might have is that you'll need a rear mech with a longer cage...
