tiregroove on December 6, 2025 2:48 am 1. All GTs suck. 2. If you’re gonna go 1X do it right with a wide-range cassette or put your ft. derailler and other chainrings back on. This is how you do 1X: https://preview.redd.it/roujeqff0i5g1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=bfd117c5d29b549bc448cde73b0ed0937311dc10
Bermnerfs on December 6, 2025 3:18 am I think it looks sick! Unless you mostly ride flat terrain I do think you’d be happier with at least a 40T cassette. Aside from that, really cool build!

I wanted to know how much you spent on a drop bar conversion. If it’s a high amount, I’d stick with the same drivetrain and get Surly Corner Bars. But to answer the question, your bike looks sick.
