Hi all
Building up a Cotic roadrat, plan is most definitely 1x11, just unsure which way to go. The planned use is mainly road, gravel, and trails, (monsal trail etc).
Options are apex1, SRAM NX or slx
Anyone any views
In one of its many incarnations, I ran an Escapade (with flat bars) with an Alfine 48T crankset and Deore / Zee 1x10 11-36 gearing - a bit cheaper than the options above. I'd imagine that any of the options about would be fine.
Alfine
SLX rules.
Get an XT cassette though, the SLX is weighty.
Thanks for positive replies, Arline not an option as already got the wheel set,
Kelvin, do you ever find yourself spinning out with just a 32t upfront, like wise Ben did you struggle on hills, I'm no racing snake but don't fancy being overtaken by every one lol
