1 x SS

2 x 1x10 (trail bike and hardtail trail bike)

1 x 2x10 (race/expedition bike)

 

I don't know about all these 1 x revelations.

 

Climbing is not the issue 32/40 it is more the 32/11 top end speed.

Hence my interest in 1x12. The ability to have the same granny gear but a much higher top end due to a larger chainring

Why is there no 3x11spd option?

 

No 1x12 option either

 

3x11 (seriously, though?) and 12 speed added. You should be able to delete your vote and cast again.

why? you never ride your bike uphill anyway  :D

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I was the only one of my crew over the weekend to ride up that short sharp little fire road ascent at the bottom of the red & black routes & Jonkers to get back to the top... 

 

And no, I do like riding uphill, or at least beating my last best time. Pushing has its place, but it's not my go-to. Despite what my fatty-status may suggest :)

Agreed...only reason I'd consider 1 x 12 is for the bigger chain ring option

Currently on an entry level 3 x 10. Trying out full sus for the first time. So got myself a giant stance. Any recommendations on future drivetrain upgrades?
