Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 1, 2018 Share https://www.evobikes.co.za/components/groupsets/sram-nx-1-11-speed-upgrade-kit.html R 3,395 is a bloody good deal for all that. 10sp sill be cheaper, if you get all the bits and pieces (R 750 for an 11-42, R 750 for a Deore SGS RD etc) but the eagle will have a much better range and will work well with your existing 34. Can even change to a 36 and have a better climbing ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoman Posted October 1, 2018 Share Not a single dropped chain since doing this 2 years agoobviously running a NW blade up front and a 32 or 34T rear? I'm sure I saw a 36 or 38T rear cassette? No chain guide or anything? I want to try 1x9. Can't afford to go a new 1x10 route... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NW up front, nothing else. I'll grab some pics for you tonight. I literally removed the 3 blade setup from the crank, dropped a Kalbo 34t on it and gooi''ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 1, 2018 Share https://www.outdoorescape.co.za/product-page/sunrace-cassette-9sp-11-40There we go. 11.5% easier climbing gear. That's almost exactly the same difference that going to a 30t would give you. And at 14% of the cost of the GX conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dicky DQ Posted October 1, 2018 Share You said you wanted to climb easier.....and with a 30 x 11 you should be able to comfortably do 36km/h on the flats.I have a 32 - 11 annd K2c was impossible to stick on the flats and slight downhills. I think if you can the perfect fit is 32 with a 46-9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 1, 2018 Share I was wrong, apparently I already have 1x10. Dunno what I was smokingHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Sunrace 11-42 for you, then https://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/sunrace-10spd-cassette-mx3c There is one for 650, but I'd get this one. Better finishing and you can definitely tell.
