Is Boost the new thing?

[pista]

Apologies for resurrecting a very old thread but I need some Bikehub help, please.

 

All Boost/Shimano discussions on the Web seem to focus on 1x11 drivetrain setups.  Well, I just prefer 2x.  So, with correct hubs and fork, will one have issues with a non-Boost 2x11 crankset (26T/36T) on a Boost frame? 

Only way to know will be to try it.

 

You could have a weird chain line and have shifting issues.

 

The chainring may touch the frame.

Thanks for the replies, everyone!
