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.
Ye I think the inside width of chains is all the same, it's only the outside width that differs between speeds. So they would all work with a single ring, it might affect (effect? who the fuck knows?) shifting with a double but probably not between 8/9/10
