  • Im toying between 1x11 deore now or 3x9 XTR?

    1x is great, even though I've now gone to a double. For 90% of stuff it's fine but say if you plan on doing any touring you might want more.

  • Well its taking me through the UK and Europe next summer, which is why I am fond of the idea of a triple as the easy gears will be bliss.

    But most of its life itll be shopping/commuting bike, so maybe 1x11 for the time being.

  • Maybe just go for a mountain double?
    I have 40/28 on my daily/tourer.
    40t is fine for most things and then you have a bailout gear for really steep/long hills.
