Can you say 1X11

Man, just when you got the latest and greatest drivetrain on your bike, they throw you something new. No need for a big chainring? That's fine, run a 2X or a 1X to save the weight. Well now, SRAM has come out with the XX1. It's their new 1 X 11 due out in October. Useful or just another gimmick to get you to buy the latest and greatest?

  1. With a 11-speed 10-42T cassette you could run a little bigger chain ring than a typical 1X9 setup. I like it. Anything to get rid of the front derailleurs.
