Anyone using this on a gravel bike, with Rival Road Shifters and MTB X01 AXS derailleur and X01 cassette ? - the setup I’m looking at gives a 10-52 cassette with a 38T chainring which seems pretty capable..
Yes, but with 34 chainring. And with Eagle through the Ratio 12spd conversion. On Stooge Rambler so not a head down on the rivet style bike.
Thanks, how do you find it ? This, if I go for it, would be on a custom build Stigmata.
I have GX axs mech, x01 10-51 cassette, gx 170mm cranks and 38t or 40t? ring with rival shifters on my Camino.
Works well, barely use the upper rings on the cassette, but I can see them in use when loaded up on some rough Devon hills!
Excellent, thanks
This thread is relevant to my interests.
Currently running an 11-36 cassette, with 48/32 front rings.
Thinking of going to 10-52, with a 38 or 40 front ring, sound reasonable?
I'm on a 10-50 Garbaruk cassette, GX Axs mech, Rival shifters and Easton crank with 42t Raceface ring. Works perfectly.
Anyone felt the need to go to force, for the ease having extra buttons? Pontentially for an XPLR dropper later down the line?

What extra buttons ?
I’ve got the new Force D2 shifters and calipers running with X01 AXS mech and cranks on my Cascade. I’ve not noticed any extra buttons on my shifters.
I’m running an AXS dropper on the bike but it works with a press of both paddles, annoyingly it does sometimes shift gears when you’re doing it unless you time it right.
I've never heard of them before but that Handsling is a very nice bike.
What extra buttons ?
force shifters allow you to plug a wired blip in (Red allows 2) to avoid having the double press for the seatpost.
I use the Force levers with "Blips" mounted under the top section of the bar. It's great being able to change gear from the tops.
I have messed around with 2x and 1x. Think I probably prefer 38x 10-44 (XPLR and flattop chain) if going 1x.
10-50 if lower gears are really needed (Eagle mech and chain).
I have a 38t on my gravel bike (11-42 cassette), and spin out fairly frequently on downhill road sections. I wouldn't go 34t unless you are almost always off road (and if you are, get a MTB!).
Tidy bike
