Late to the party – but my Stroma build
Loving it, but I fancy some summer upgrades... thinking maybe some Hunt carbon hoops, mainly just for the fun of it
Also seeing a lot of nice custom 1x road setups...Lovely build. To answer the 1x question more seriously here but trying to keep it short...
Have built up several 1x bikes for gravel & CX to commuting to crits. Works great for simplicity and going off-road. Can work on a pure road bike if happy with the 'compromises' and a sensible range. I Personally tend not to care about the perfect cadence or that one time a year I hit a long downhill.
Saying that, I wouldn't go out of my way to take off a perfectly good groupset. The crit bikes running large aero 1x chainrings sure do look good but that is where it ends.
Get some nice hoops and fast tyres instead (if not already)..
Does anyone have Stroma?
