I run mine 1x11 with a 44 chainring up front and 46t cassette in the rear. Works great! On Monday, November 25, 2019 at 1:08:39 PM UTC-6, Robert Gardner wrote: > > Is anyone running a 1x11 on a roadini? Thinking of building one for some > centuries and/or light rando rides. Wondering if anyone

I'm running 1x11 on a Kona Rove, with a 42 up front and a 11-50 in the back. SRAM Rival brifter and rear mech. It's very close to the same gear inch spread as a 44/24 with a 11-32. The clutch on the rear mech is great for dirt roads. There's some shots of it here:

I'm running 1x8 on mine... well, sort of. 46-30 double with no front derailleur and an 12-28 cassette. Works fine, no complaints here in flat Louisiana and in not-so-flat St. Francisville. I would say that Roadinis make uniquely good candidates for 1x because their long chainstays decrease

I have a Specialized Sequoia with 1x11 but my Roadini is 2x11. My Roadini has a gear inch spread of 29.1" to 114" on 700/32 with a 46/30 & 11/28. The Sequoia has a gear inch spread of 26.9" to 103" on 650B/47 with a 42 & 11/42. They both use SRAM Force and feel great. I really dig the

Not on a Roadini, but on I run 1x11 on my Hillborne. The two should be very similar to set up. Setting it up was the same as any other bike except easier, because I didn't have to fiddle with Shimano's new 11 speed front derailleur designs. Mine is an Ultegra RX rear derailleur (the one with

I've run 1x drivetrains on two Rivendells, but not a Roadini. Both of them were a 42-tooth chainring and an 11-32 cassette. I had that setup on my Sam Hillborne, and used that for all-purpose road riding, including a 200k and 300k brevet with San Francisco Randonneurs. That setup employed
