Have any of you paired a GX 2.1 rear derailleur to SRAM 11 road shifters to achieve 2x11 with an 11-36t cassette?
I have Rival1 group, but I would prefer the increased range of 2x. So, by getting a left/front shift lever, a GX2.1 derailleur, and a cassette I should be able to get the range I'm looking for (with a clutched derailleur) for under 200ish.
Currently installed are 5700 shifters, Praxis 48/32 crank, XT derailleurs, and 11-36 10sp. It all shifts really nicely for the most part, but I'm not aware of any derailleurs with a clutch that share the 1.7:1 movement ratio of the 8/9/10 Shimano (non-dynasys) derailleurs.
I'm trying to be cheap, and I know that if I just sold off some of my parts bin, I could go full GRX or similar.
