gearlegs4ever on February 6, 2026 11:58 pm Oops, meant 11 speed not 12 on the driver body.

aretheygood4bikingon on February 7, 2026 12:19 am Assuming that an 8/9/10s HG hub, it should be fine so long as you don’t buy a cassette for microspline, XD, or HGroad, or a direct mount derailleur. Or campy, I guess.
Zealousideal_Heart51 on February 7, 2026 12:47 am Should be fine, right? I run mountain 11sp cassettes on a couple 9/10sp hubs so I think a mountain 12sp would clear as well. That’s a great looking bike. I love the tires.

Is it cool if I message you?
11 or 12, they both work with the right parts.

Cool cranks
2×6? It’ll work great! Slept on classic combo
