How to convert your bike to a 1x drivetrain.
"There
is an undeniable appeal to a single chainring set up, provided it suits
your riding style and terrain. Ditching one or more chainrings, a front
derailleur, a shifter and the associated cables can not only shed close
to a pound, but also adds a bit of simplicity to your bike's cockpit at
a time when handlebars are increasingly cluttered with GPS units,
dropper post remotes and suspension lockout levers." (bikeradar.com) (Wolftooth

an elite level racer and spend a lot of hours in the saddle. I’m
healthy. I’m strong. And I’m confident on the bike. Yet every time I
see a picture of myself in lycra (or spandex as we say in the US), I
cringe.
Even in a podium shot - hands in the air, a big smile on my face - my eyes go straight to my hips, my thighs and other “soft” areas. Ugh." (cyclingtips.com.au) Photography by Kirsty Baxter September
