So hypothetically let's say forces beyond my control have required me to relinquish my commitment to a 2x drivetrain. Supply issues aside, what do I get? I have no idea. I haven't built a bike component by component since 1999.
Mechanical 1x is the aim. XT level because, well, because XT, and I need everything, shifter, cranks, derailleur, everything. Di2 is the ducks nutz, but the battery life won't cover the ultra-marathon races I'm working towards. So along those lines I also need the range, 11sp XTR with a long cage will still only go to 46t, officially anyway.
Preferably not SRAM, but I'm open to and XD driver and cassette. My fancy pants race wheels have a HG driver the moment.
Blank canvas people, show me some options
