I need easier gears on a budget. I'm currently running a 12-36 cassette, slx m662 9 speed rear mech and a 33t chainring on a double.
Thinking of switching to a 26 or 28t up front on a triple run as a 1x
Will this work ok? Chainline will be off so I guess the chain will wear quicker?
It's on long tail cargo bike so only using it for bezzing around town.
If it's a long tail, I suspect the added length between chainring and cassette mean chainline is not really a problem
