Currently running a wolf tooth chainring up front, 9 speed chain, and an ultegra 9 speed derailleur in back. WT recommended running a ten speed chain to make the fit even tighter. May do that when I wear out the current chain but haven’t had chain drop trouble yet, even without a clutch on the r

[RBW] Best 1 - 11 setup

2020-05-14 Thread Wyatt
Can’t say I know the best, but I recently set up a 1x11 drive train with a Microshift bar end, SLX rear derailleur, and SLX 11-46 rear cassette. Loved it, especially once I got the hang of running it friction and doing smooth double or triple shifts. Plenty of range, though I’d probably run a ch

Patrick, the benefit of running a wide range cassette on a road bike is pretty straightforward. You get all of the plusses of a 1x drivetrain (if you like that sort of thing) and can still run a big chainring up front (think 44t or even larger) without losing a decent climbing/bailout gear. Obv

I seem to remember a Sackville frame bag being teased awhile back. As I recall, not a full frame bag, but something like a half-frame bag that would run the length of the top tube. Can't find any evidence of it, though. Am I imagining things or is something like this in the pipeline? Would love
