I have 50t chainring 1x setup on my Caad12 and feel guilty that I have a cassette that goes up to 32t on it. It gets me up Swains, Mott Street and other hills out in Essex without a problem.
If I wanted to do some more serious climbing and stay with 1x I'd be sizing down the chainring and getting a hub that can take 10t sprockets.
