Hello All,
got a tech question regarding interchangability of equipment.
Many of you know of XX1 groupset release by now which i think is a fantastic idea finally making a dedicated 1x groupset, however the dinner plate sized rear cassette (42t) has me baffled.
I currently run a 11x34 with a 32t front ring. I find if i max out with a 32 - 34 climbing gear i either cant keep the front wheel on the ground or im better off walking as it will be quicker!
So! im specing out a new bike at the moment and am toying with the idea of a XX & XX1 mix of components. Interested to know if the XX1 rear mech will work with a 10sp (XX, XO or X9) shifter?
running 10sp will give me the option of a 36t rear as well as avoid the need to modify rear hub for XD freehub body.
Any insight to this would be appreciated!
Peace, Pedal on.
