  • Drops or risers? Id say go sram 10 speed for 1x. Consumables are cheaper and still as widely available as 11 speed, plus it'll probably last a little longer. Gx rear mech will take 36t+ and rival 10 speed shifters go for cheap on ebay. Can also recommend J&L narrow wides from far east ebay sellers. High quality and mine hasnt dropped a chain after a good few hundred rough miles

  • Drops, got some deda RHM01s which seem to get on with my wrists quite well. Yeah I don't really care about going up to 11 and was hoping 10 may be more abundant in the 2nd hand market. From what I can see most SRAM mechs will work with their road levers, @michaelgscott hopefully what you've said applies? The x9 and the like seem fairly abundant but will be what I can find on here really. Oh good to know about the J&L may get that ordered sooner rather than later for fear or a long wait! @Howard thanks for the offer if I can't grab a wheelset with one on there I will be in touch

  • All 10-speed SRAM is compatible. 11-speed road shifters also work with 10-speed MTB derailleurs. 11-speed MTB is a no-go.

    Photo doesn't work for me, try again maybe? Interested though, I nearly bought a Boardman CX frame
