SRAM 10-speed, yeah, so 11-40 and MTB derailleur is easy to do. I think what I'd like is something like a 48/32 or 46/30 double for road touring and 44 1× for gravel/commuting/day-rides/whatever. 1× cranksets seem to be only £50 or so on eBay and I already have the bar-ends.
Was hoping someone else might have done and would be able to tell me whether or not it's stupid but oh well

At the moment I have 48/32 with a 11-34t which felt idea, and throw in a 11-36 when going off road touring.
A 11-36 with a 32t ring is similar to an MTB drivetrain too.
Or get a cheap FSA 46/30 to give you all the range with a normal 11-32t.

What groupset? if 10 speed, you can get Sunrace with 11-40t for instance, so with a 46t mean you get a low gear similar to a 34/28.
