Currently running a 1x10 right now: 46T crank in the front with the aforementioned 11-28T in the rear, and non-indexed shifting friction shifting on the bar end. I'm looking at a 10 or 11 spd cassette in the 11-36T or 44T range. Trying to avoid redoing the whole drivetrain with a 2x9 or 2x10 setup, but not entirely opposed to it.
