• thank fuck .. I have not read confidence inspiring things about crux and 2x but I am keen to see how you do this, wireless is piss easy of course.

    Maybe we can chat gearing now @BareNecessities ?

  • Well they say you can't run road stuff on it, but I was going to run gravel crankset and GRX groupset so don't expect there to be much of a problem. If there's reduced clearance because of the FD, I may go to 1x but given I already have 2 sets of 2x cranks I'll probably just run skinnier tyres if that's the case.

  • is there a hole for FD cable though?

    edit: there is

  • you can. i run a quarq dfour with 50-34 9100 rings on it. i think 52-36 doesn't work but compact rings do fit. not even an extra spacer required. clearance issue is ofc at the chainstay

  • Spesh have a history of tight FD clearance on gravely type bikes, see Sequoia with bigger tyres.
    Crux are lush though, I miss my old one.
