    Can't speak to SRAM, but currently have Ultegra 2x and love it. It just plain works.

    That looks like a tough gear for a single speed - must love an extended climb.

    Nope. Dedicated SS, that's why the Tirade purchase for a geared HT.

    I need to look into that Wheels kit. Been struggling to find a way to get an XD driver SS compatible for a while.

    It ain’t cheap but if XD is your jam it’s the best thing going. Still don’t understand narrow/wide SS cogs like that kit includes. Not solving a problem but adds complexity to getting your wheel back on. Just why?

    XD isn’t really my jam, it’s what I have. Buying a new wheel or driver is an option, but converting to SS is still in order with any non-XD wheel/driver I acquire.

    Fair enough. Probably not a bad idea for the mud bike, I just spray mine down after rides but I'm sure keeping the mud out in the first place isn't a bad option.

    I'll second this. Never had a Road SRAM setup but I've tried Force AXS on a buddy's bike and it was smooth. I prefer cable actuated on all my bikes and 2x on my road bikes.

    I like cable too, but this bike is routed for electronic only. :rolleyes: I did want 2x for sure on this bike b/c I don't want a lot of "overlap" between my cx/gravel bike and road.


    No cable ports in down tube.

    Just at that point in the stroke, I run an Oval ring and it tightens up. Haven't dropped a chain or had any issues in 4 months. :thumbsup:
