@Super_Ted how did you find the 1x setup for gearing? any problems with chain slipping off?
Got the 2017 model and looking to gear up also. Thinking 1x8, road shifter and road derallieur. Also the creaking sound is still in the newer model, I have changed bb, thinking it was that, but your solution might be the one.....
Still using it. Got a 40t Superstar narrow-wide on the front and 36t back. Never felt like I've needed more gears, and never dropped the chain, despite some sections rough enough to eject water bottles!
