    the big benifit for me going to one up front is running a chain guide.

    Do a search. There are LOADS of 1×10 / 1×9 threads. I tried it and didn’t like it. Now i run 2×10. 42/32 suits my riding much better.

    and you will find when you have no front shifter your chain will come off a lot more

    I had 30 gears, went down to 2×10 a while back and looking at going 1×10 soon with a 33t front. I think big steep climbs I’ll suffer but it will work me harder to get my fitness up, also I do more down than up really.

    I’m goon for SRAM x0 DH cranks, renthal 33t chain ring and Mrp g2 mini

    paul you could just file the granny ring tabs off and will work fine with chain device no need for new crank
