I have SRAM eTap AXS 1x 50t with 10-28 on my “training” tri bike. My racing tri bike has 11-speed Shimano Di2, 52/36 usually with 11-25 cassette or 11-28 for hillier courses. My road bike has 2x eTap AXS.
So I’d like to move to just one groupset family and looking to put eTap AXS on my other tri bike. I like the 1x for its pure simplicity and I live in coastal NE Florida which is flat as a board. I sometimes like to do hilly races though. I have done Whistler twice, Syracuse 3x, and thinking about Hawaii 70.3, IMMT and IMChatt next year.
Would I be fine with 1x 50t or 48t with 10-33 cassette?
I’ve reviewed the Sheldon Brown calculator a hundred times and the math makes sense but that’s not exactly the same as feel.
