I project 50% hate 50% with this setup. I rarely shift to the small ring. It‘s my „last resort“ ring for long mountain climbs. I never shift under a lot of pressure.

When you shift back on to the big ring how do you make sure the wide links land on the wide teeth? I feel like that’s not gonna work…
Add a little more distance between those gears and you’ll be in “turkey vulture” territory…

I love it, I too run two narrow wides, but I run them the same size and as a bash guard only.
This is absolute madness
This seems illogical when you can get another bike cheap with non narrow wide rings and do the ole swaparoo. I think me shifting biopace rings is easier…
Why not just use regular chainrings that won’t get chewed up 50% of the time?
This is exactly what i was planning for my current XTR-m900 triple setup. I imagine changing it to double with a widerange cassette would make shifting so much simpler.
I want to change the cassette from 12-30 to 11-36 and swap the 26/36/46 Chainrings for 26/41. Currently not sure if i should go for narrow wide one and a protection ring on the outboard position or one of those lightweight cnc chainrings from Litepro with integrated guard.
Ayy pack rat!
But why????
I wouldn’t say it works, but it works well enough for you. I would just get a regular chainring myself.
