I read about some people having chain line troubles with the bike on
Wont be specific to the bike as it uses a normal bottom bracket and standard 135mm rear spacing.
People do often have chainline issues with 1x in general, but that’s down to specific component choices really (BB width, crank spider offset, ring size etc.), not the frame causing it.
I wouldn’t ever recommend a particular setup (1x, 2x, 3x, IGH wtc.) for someone without knowing a bit more about where they ride, how they ride, and their specific fitness and strengths really as it’s too personal.
Do you have any option to try some bikes out with different setups, either through demo days, local shops, or borrowing mates bikes?
It would give you the option to try different setups on stuff you normally ride and for you to see what works for you, as some people get very attached to their choices and will just recommend what works for them, rather than what might work for others.
For ref, I have have bikes with SS, 1x, 2x, 3x and IGH, they get used for different things and all have their pros and cons. I like the simplicity of not having a front mech, but I dislike some of the compromises I have to make at times so it’s not always the answer despite what many will say.
