If spending prolongs the fun then its worth it. Front doubles are all the rage nowadays but with a wide range on the rear cluster it works and as your main rides will be on rough stuff then it will suit. For me though I still prefer a triple as it gives me an even wider range, but then my cycling is different.

The latest trend has been away from triples in the front and giant gears in the back, for no reason that I can detect.
