Was just going to go for a shimano ultegra or dura chainset and a mix of other ultegra and 105 parts but wondered if theres anything else i should consider?
I'm also still considering a single rather than double ring setup, do these work fine with 10 speed setups? i've used them 1x9 on the mtb before
I'm using a Shimano R700 compact, before that had a TA Zephyr light compact (which is probably for sale if anyone wants it!)
There's a whole article on cyclingnews.com about 1x10
I just use a standard road compact with 34/50
i have been running sigle ring for the last 7 years with no problem on 9 or 10 dura ace. on 42 with spooky carbon guides with 12-25 cassettes
thanks for the cyclingnews 1x10 info
so tempted to buy 7900 from planetx as the price seems good and run it 1x10
anyone use bar end shifters on there 1x10, or is sti still the way to go?
if using barcons? what brake levers would be best?
Not many people using bar end shifters. If youre starting from scratch STI/Ergo has to be the way. I can think of a few courses where barcons would be a mare.
cheers for the info, sti feel a bit weird to me as i ride mtb mostly, never used barcons.
so for 1x10 do people still use an sti for both brakes or do they buy some drop bar brake fake sti?
strip the LH sti
hmm
so i can but a non matching LH drop bar lever (which ones best)?
or i can buy a LH sti and strip it which is expensive but will match the RHS
hmm
Non matching L/H lever like this bloke used to do
