I’ve been running 1X for a while and really like it...I have a rotor aldhu crank with rotor 50t ring...and it works well with my force 1 RD...
If I want to move to the new 12-speed...will the new AXS RD and chain work with my current crankset/chainring???
Unfortunately it won't work with that chainring. See Lennard Zinn's FAQ here:
https://www.velonews.com/...compatibility_493386 The Flat-top chain that is required to work with the AXS red cassette has a different roller diameter than a regular 11-speed chain or even the 12-speed eagle chain.
Wolf tooth has said that they are going to start making Flat-top compatible chainrings for Easton Cinch, 110 BCD, and 130 BCD and I'm sure others will follow soon. That would mean getting a whole new crankset though unless you wait for Rotor to come out with a Flat-top Aldhu chainring but who knows if and when that will happen.
