EdGe Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Hello, I have just taken delivery of a new hardtail alloy frame, the AL829 from Momsen Bikes. I had a dual suspension frame I recently sold, and I have a full Shimano XT groupset. The thing is, it is a direct mount front derailleur. The new hardtail frame isn't... How do I go about solving this? Thanks!
EdGe Posted July 23, 2014 Author Posted July 23, 2014 1x10!!! Hahaha! It is something I have toyed with! Do I need anything to do that conversion? thanks for the answer.
PoiZoNouZ Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) A single chainring for the crank and that's it! Edited July 23, 2014 by PoiZoNouZ EdGe 1
NotSoBigBen Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 If you want the chain to stay on then a chain guide if you use a 'normal' chainring, or the better option a Narrow Wide chainring and no guide PoiZoNouZ and EdGe 2
Eugene Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 You can buy adaptors. I got one for free a few years ago from another hubber. I'm sure a bike shop will sell them. EdGe 1
