If you are strong and weigh nothing then this is an ideal setup. Aero really matters when you are bombing on a bike. Can’t beat the reliability of a 1X

[c-hl]

If you can have your bike completely rebuilt specifically for a race or even just a stage, by a team of professional mechanics with unlimited access to top of the range parts, it's inevitable that a 1x is going to be the best option on at least one occasion.

[julianwambachsb]

Also, because SRAM front derailleurs are undeniably temperamental.

[stuartbramley]

The losses due to poor chain line at the extremes of the cassette must be close to the advantage of removing the front mech. On a tt bike you choose your chain ring based on the fact you’ll have an ideal chain line almost all of the time.

[vitorvilasanchez]

"quite significantly" is a confy sounding way of saying it saves you a couple of watts.

[MikeHorms]

Number one reason, SRAM ist their sponsor and want to push their new group

[jamesmckenzie]

The weight difference between Force and Red is insignificant compared to the loss of one front chain ring and the FD. I applaud Jumbo for being this bold.

[lovenottheworld]

50/36 is lower than 39/28 and if you had any less than 39/23 back in 2000 you were a wimp.

[AmvC]

One step away from front suspension to improve comfort, clear fatigue. Then all it takes is a small skip to fully suspended 😅 welcome to the mountain biking master race, roadies

[bicyclist]

I love Campy and Shimano much better. Sram doesn't know how to innovate, so they just buy others that do. I don't understand this departure from front derailleurs. I love front derailleurs. Thanks.

[m.talley]

Is the aerodynamic drag of a front derailleur really "significant"?

[FrankJohnson-re]

One by? No thx 🙋 I'll pass. But then im not a professional bike rider either. I'm usually in the 52 tooth chain ring, by far, but I thank God for the 36 tooth being there on the uphills. My 11 speed cassette is 28 - 11, mechanical Shimano 105.
I'm completely happy with my 2015 Masi Gran Corsa 💓 😁. Again I'm just a duffer 😐

[MartinPGrindrod]

It’s just for marketing purposes - any aero advantage of a single ring up front is probably lost by having a longer rear cage to accommodate the range needed at the back, chain line is not as good at either end of the cassette and that does introduce a measurable loss. The only advantage of a 1 X is reduced risk of chain drop

[noahmiller]

Surely not ok for mountain stages? Or is 50x36 fine on 15% if you're Jonas!?

[onederment]

I quite often go above 40 kph on a 1x12speed but I ride a recumbent and I am a little overweight

[kalijasin]

Front derailleurs are inefficient, clunky, etc.

[Halfpenny]

Manufacturers have to move the market on to keep sales up, that’s all that’s happening here.

[petetube]

They ride what they are told to. Otherwise they wouldn't be riding hydro disc and thru axle.

[franciscorey]

Dejaros de con un desarrollo, sin el plato chico es perjudicial para la vosotros mismos luego no empeceis a LA VIDA INVENTANDO

[Lufftschwimmer]

what will be the advantage? To show othes how strong I am ? I need only one chaining infront...I will never understand ist, you must make a cassette with a lot of gears, which have so many distance between the gears....why for what ? Weight ? for professionals riders have to ride what is in their am couriuos what the riders say about the technic after their time in professional cycling....some years ago was a team theiy try to ride with one team blows off, and hear the inteviews what riders say WITHOUT getting paid !
