Hello all! Living in Japan and recently got my hands on a Nesto Gavel and was going to go from 2×9 Shimano Sora group set to a 1×11 Shimano GRX group set. I just have a couple of questions regarding some confusion from my part.

After using google translate on the manufacturer’s website (posted above) i’ve concluded that the rear wheel is 11spd ready, im just not sure which cassette would pair best with the GRX set up. So suggestions would be greatly appreciated !

Secondly, the bottom bracket states its a BB86 which is a pressfit but since im changing to Shimano GRX cranks, would compatibility be possible? Or am I going to have to switch BB’s? I prefer one that has easily changed bearings like those “threaded conversion” BB’s but not completely sure if they work well or not.

Any suggestions / guidance is greatly appreciated!

Parts on hand:

Shimano GRX RX-810 Brakes
Shimano GRX RX-600 172.5mm Cranks (40t)
Shimano GRX RX-600 Levers
Shimano GRX RX-810 Rear Derailleur
