Flowta Posted August 29, 2013 Share the one you get on every 10speed mtb sold these days? or must i tell you the tooth shape and groove width? Could be 11/34 or 11/36 or even 11/32. Reasonable question Ryanpmb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryanpmb Posted August 29, 2013 Share the one you get on every 10speed mtb sold these days? or must i tell you the tooth shape and groove width?I would class both a 11-34 and 11-36 as 'normal'. Was interested to know which one you were referring to. Didn't mean to catch you on the crimson tide pal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowta Posted August 29, 2013 Share Thanx Flowta I had a look on the evobikes site. Its not cheap, but will give me a much better range of gears. 1 by 10 seems like an attractive option using the general lee conversion. My solution will be cheaper, heavier and maybe not as neat.I will post when it's done. Waiting on a delivery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting slip Posted August 29, 2013 Share one by ten or eleven works great on xco or enduro but not for stage races. agree with copperhead and singlespeedGuy.must say the weight is a massive saving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryanpmb Posted August 29, 2013 Share fair question yes but for a first post in a thread really?Was a genuine interest. I'll check with you before I post further questions. I just feel terrible that I couldn't do it for my previous 1835 posts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewbacca Posted August 29, 2013 Share one by ten or eleven works great on xco or enduro but not for stage races. agree with copperhead and singlespeedGuy.must say the weight is a massive saving! Hey man, I'm not picking on you like the other guys are but why doesn't it work for stage races? If you are fit enough and have the legs then anything is good enough for stage races, surely? You can change the chain ring size if its a flat stage or such and such.. That's the beauty of its simplicity. Hell, even one of my rigid single speeds has managed a top 100 and sometimes a top 50 place in a few stage races........ I'm really not stirring, just trying to understand why it wouldn't work.

McD23 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Sauser and Kulhavy managed just fine at the Epicum there full time job is to ride all day for a living, I should hope so..Don't reckon many mere recreational mortals would manage a 1x10 on Epic ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodbadugly Posted August 30, 2013 Share One BIG thing would be if Shimano brings out a 11-42 10 speed cassette. That would sell like hotcakes. I will be the first in line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodbadugly Posted August 30, 2013 Share um there full time job is to ride all day for a living, I should hope so..Don't reckon many mere recreational mortals would manage a 1x10 on Epic ?You are right there.Sometimes you wish for a easier ratio than a 24 chainring and a 11-36 cassette.
