Is there a specific SKU anyone knows about that is ideal for a) BB386EVO and b) can be set up either 1x or 2x? I know the Quarq 110 BCD lines will work for both, but the P2M line remains an enigma to me.
Currently the Red 22 and Quark PM's will NOT fit on a BB386EVO BB; Force 22, Rival, Apex, and S series PF30 cranks (11 speed) will work. Remove the spacers on the crank and the preload adjuster and use: 3.2mm space with wave washer on non-drive side, 2.5mm spacer plus 3x0.5mm spacers on drive side. (That is what works for the Open UP. If the BB shell width is the same, then that will work. If the shell width is different, you'll have to work it out on your own. I have an Open UP and can confirm that spacer arrangement works.)
Also with regards to 1x or 2x: when you pick the drive train, you are also making a decision about wheels. The issue is that there are no off-the-shelf 650B mountain wheels that are compatible with 11 speed ROAD cassettes. (11 speed road and 11 speed mountain cassettes are not the same spacing.) So if you pick the 2x road drivetrain, the only way to get 650B wheels is to buy rims and lace them to road hubs. Conversely, build it up with SRAM 1x and an XD driver (mountain) 11 speed cassette, and you cannot run a road 11 speed cassette.
