LOL. And here I thought I was living dangerously on the cutting edge with my 10 speed cassette.
But the person who reviewed the 13 setup is an idiot: *There’s been a lot of talk about single ring transmissions in road riding over the last few weeks. We’ve seen the launch of the new 3T Strada Due which has added double chainring compatibility to a bike that was designed for 1x; that means you can run the bike with any groupset (so long as it’s electronic), but in terms of aerodynamics it’s a retrograde step, as a 1x system cuts through the air more cleanly.* Yeah, right, that front derailleur and that inner ring just act like big sails. *A 2x11 system doesn’t have 22 gears. Well, okay, it does, but realistically you’re looking at 14 sequential gears, ...* Yeah, right again: only if you don't know how to set up your cassettes and rings. I just glanced at my Excel gear sheet and the 2X10 crossover on my Matthews, set up for close spacing and convenience rather than greatest number of gears, gives me 15 non-duplicate gears and a few very useful duplicate gears on the crossover. What *I* want to know is whether you can shift 13 with SunTour barcons. On Wed, Nov 7, 2018 at 4:45 PM Brewster Fong <bfd...@gmail.com> wrote: > Come on Man, catch up!
