Thanks for the tip J. I  run my drop bars very high so I can be in the 
drops most of the time.  I tried the Paul adapter but didn't like the fact 
the shifter was so far away from where my hands normally were. The only 
place I could find on my WTB drop bars for that adapter was up top near the 
stem. This mount works perfectly for my needs.

Thanks for that endorsement of the crankset.  My 1x11 parts are Shimano XT 
which is also pretty affordable.  I think I'll keep the 2x10 running until 
after I'm finished with my 200 miles on 10 bikes challenge.

Bill and all,

I've been really pleased with the M30 Crankset.  Definitely a great option 
for your MTB.

After some riding.  The gear range is more than appropriate for the riding 
that I do.  I think the Eagle GX is a great budget option for people, but 
there are fewer hub options because of the XD driver body.  

The gear range is in no way limiting.  I do acknowledge that the Eagle XX1 
kit is expensive, if I was on a tighter budget, I would go with the Eagle 
GX kit.  Durability we will see about.  I did run a 11-speed XX1 kit on my 
MTB and had no issues on the durability front.  

As for wheel dish.  The has the exact same dish as any modern cassette body 
hub.  OLD on the rear hub is 135mm.  The way the cassette is designed, the 
last couple cogs are dished in over the drive-side hub flange.  

As always, gearing is a personal preference in some regards.  This setup 
works really well for me and my needs/desires.  Simplified on the gear 
selection, choices are 1-12.  Less parts to deal with, and a cleaner setup 
in my eyes.

I'm relatively new to the group, and as such may have missed a past thread 
on the topic - but what are the benefits to a 1x setup? They seem to be 
rising in popularity, yet at first glance it seems limiting and expensive. 
Is the rear wheel dished more? How does that effect longevity? Is it worth 
not having a second shifter? What am I missing...

Keith:

Somehow I doubt you'll miss the top gear.  Given the 500% spread on the 
cassette, I'd be tempted toward an even smaller chainring, but that's from 
an old guy who has been known to push his bike up hills.  Be interesting to 
hear about the longevity of the chain.

110 gear inches is plenty for most people.  Jan is a stronger rider than 
99% of people, and he claims he has never been dropped on a descent due to 
not having a high enough gear, and his top gear is 90 gear inches.  48x14. 
 By my reckoning you lost nothing by losing your 123 inch gear.  You 
discarded the correct part of your gear chart, IMO.

I'm about to run that M30 crankset on my mountain bike.
