I rode 3x for many years, probably not on a great gearing, but found there to be too many gears for my style. 1x is interesting and simplifies things but doesn’t have the range I want. This 2x9 I...

That’s the problem of a 1x. Either the gear spacing jumps are too large between gears, or the gearing does not have a low enough gear for climbing or high enough for faster road speeds. I’m actually...

I just got the 402 + 710 combo. They feel really nice and the innerbarends feels like using hoods, with easy access to brakes. From past experience I knew I needed another hand position for long...
