Dont want a fd. I wouldnt want to change during a ride.
The alternative is @Dammit 's method of having two seperate chainrings and changing them over completely, this is just an easier version of that
Having read this I'm considering double NW for my Orlo. Found myself overgeared on off road rides with 42-36 as my lowest gear, but don't want to drop the chainring tooth count as for road rides even 42-11 highest gear isnt that high. Wouldnt change during the ride, just once before if need be depending on what I'll be riding
Ideally I'd have 44t front for road and ~36t for off road
