  • Need chain/crankset recommendations for my Raleigh project (it's a Record Ace not a Royal).

    Can't decide between 1x or 2x.

    Want something kinda retro/classy looking. I have some Ultegra 6600 HT2 arms that might look alright. The 38t minimum ring size probably means 1x if I use them and I'm struggling to find a decent looking small n/w ring.

    Thought I'd gotten a nice set of Stronglights but have realised it's unlikely my 10speed chain will play nicely with the rings which are probably 8 or 9 speed vintage. Also don't know if the front mech I have (Campy road) will manage with the difference in chainring sizes.

  • My 11 speed chain works perfectly fine with 9 speed rings. Give it a go, nice looking crankset.

    Get a modern 105 derailleur with integrated barrel adjuster which will work perfectly with the 16t chainring difference.
