Hey all,
I’ve been thinking about converting my bike to a 1x built and had some questions!
I have a Ventum size Small (51cm) with DI2 drivetrain, Q-rings chainrings (54/42) and a 11/25 cassette.
I 3 questions:
1) There are no 54t NW Q-ring. Would you rather get a 52 NW Q-ring or a 54t Sram XSync chain ring? Is the shifting (noticeable) better with the sram chainring?
2) What cassette/rear derreileur would you recommend? I know I dont have many ratios with my current setup (42/25 is the “softest” ratio I currently have). Knowing this, which one would you recommend? I’ve never had any problems with those gear-ratios.
3) What would be my “recommended” setup with all its pieces? Meaning what kind of shifters/brakes would I need. Should I set up the aerobars buttons with a 1xbutton shifter or with a 2xbuttons shifter? Same questions goes for the handlebar. Would I need something else? Like a wolftooh hanger or some kind of chain-lime holder?
Regards!
