Dammit
I ran 44T single ring front, 11-32 Sram XX cassette, Ultegra 6700 10 speed, short cage mech and Retroshift (or whatever they call themselves now) shifters, purely for 'Cross, which in my case means the Summer Series races, held in mid-summer on pretty hard, dry fast courses.
I can't remember having chain slap, and the chain stay didn't reveal any.
I only changed that setup because I found that I was riding almost exclusively in the drops, and therefore could not reach the shifter - I had thought that I'd be on the tops most of the time, which turned out to be wrong.
