Who did this and do you use a chain catcher?
There are several brands offering 1x chainrings for Shimano cranksets to make your 2x a 1x set up.
Like alugear and garbaruk making wide/narrow rings.
We live in pan cake flatter then flat Netherlands and me and a few customers of mine are considering going 1x, but we all use Shimano.
Either Dura Ace or Ultegra and it is nit a clutch rear derailleur.
Roads are pretty good.
I did 1x with Shimano in the ‘90’s when 1x really wasn’t a thing and never had a chain drop.
We are wondering how much need their is for a chain catcher or that the chances of a chain drop are not that great when roads are good, or riding over a pot hole or speed bump or something like that.
