I think I need your help since I'm pretty much new into Gravel/Mtb Groupsets and normally only ride ss or fixed since ages.
I just got myself a veloci cycle disko and I'm thinking about the parts or groups to use. I like the idea of the fern bikes with the old Dura Ace 7402 cranks. Square bottom brackets are cheap and everywhere. Also they look a lot better then the new Monster crankset everybody has got these days. Is there a reason not to convert the 2x DA into 1x?
Also I'm a little bit overwhelmed since you bascially just use every single group for gravel. So I thought i go GRX or Rival 1, now a friend tells me to go Force 1 (Cause its more expensive) and another one tells me just to get used XT, because its "da best". Whats your opinion, and do you have experience with other rear mechs like the burd gevenalle?
