As a result of my bent SRAm derailleur I've switched to 1×9 with friction shifters on the top tube and an old Microshift derailleur. I bought an AliExpress knock-off RoadLink and when that arrives I might try 1×10 with that 11-42 cassette. Pretty happy with this setup though. It also has V-brakes at the rear which feel pretty damn good with a full-length compressionless outer (the pink cable).
I would like to get the rack back on, fix the outers on more neatly and get some mudguards and then I think it'll be "finished".
Edit: forgot to say I destickered the rims for stealth (goodbye Redneck XC1, you'll be missed), and that the camera on this phone is awful compared to my old phone :(
