Thank you well explained, I was utilizing a 44" front and a rear 34"-11" and skipped down to a 38" same rear gears and actully gained speed in my climbs and the flats are in the 20 plus mph for my 1×10 cross bike perfect, from me in Albuquerque New Mexico thank you!

Yout setup is absolutely same with me. And also i am thinking to change the front chainring to 34 as well. Good job!

Thanks for your share
I got same setup with you. Altus M2000 (same form with your Alivio), 11-42 Cog, 36t Chainring and can not utilizing 9-8-7-6-5 cog perfectly

Very good video thanks for sharing. I have myself a 38T chainring and I don't ride fast, I use my bike for fitness and do a lot of off road riding. I bought a new 34T chainring and new chain and will be installing soon. Given the 4 cog difference the chain length will be proportionally shorter too.
Cheers

Makapagpalit na nga rin po sa 1x setup, mukhang mas ok at mas magaan. Salamat sa video idol! Tuloy tuloy mo lang po...

As I can see watching your video and making the comparison with my drivetrain (which are the same as yours) you were experimenting issues with the chain line and with the capacity of your rear derailleur due to:
a) probably a bad use or no use of spacers on the pedallier or bottom bracket.
b) a bad aligment of the rear derailleur in height by not setting properly the "B" screw as this screw regulates the height of the guide pulley on relation with the cassette biggest sprocket.
Have in mind that Alivio rear derailleur is intended for a 36 T casette max. Although It can handle more...

I’m building a Cannondale and was thinking I’d go 1-9, and a 34 up front, I think even 9 is enough for what I’ll do

A smaller chainring will benefit you primarily on climbs not on flats or straightaways 👌🏼

Buy Wolf tooth components I make them thanks

The only reason why I would change my 32t chainring to a 34t is so that the chain doesn't touch the crankset spider. I see this is a problem on some 104 bcd spiders with 32t chainrings, while I could grind down the spider a little, I would rather change the chainring.

Astig idol ng content mo. Madami ako matutunan sayo. Lupet. Happy New Year. Bless you. See you on Sunday ride sir.

Try 32-34 oval for some more uphill comfort

[xenuzarkeee]

same tayo lods 34t chainring / 11-42 cassette. ok naman. hindi rin ako nagmamadali pag nagrarides pero chill lang sa ahon :) ride safe kapadyak

[lesterjaypableo]

Thank you sa magandang pagkakaexplain. Ako naman noon naka 34T na oval chainring at ang cogs ko ay 11s na 11-50T then ayos na ayos sya sa ahon pero bitin ako sa patag. Kaya ngayon naka 36T oval chainring na ako and I see more difference na sa 34T pero nag iba na nga lang ang sweet spot ko medyo gumaan di gaya sa 34T ko na pantay ang bigat pero so far oks sya sa ahon at patag di ka iwan sa ride. Skl po😁

[archchristianquinto]

Kala ko Advertisement hahaha nice one Ka Coggie ❤️❤️ Ride Safe ❤️

tama ka dyan sir. tigas ng 38t to 11t. gusto kong pumalit sa 36t kundi 34t nalng

[redditorunamed]

i have maybe a silly question but i hope maybe you might know? i have an ebike and the front cog has 42 teeth. since the bike chain always skips i planned to get a chain guide however the guides available are for 38 teeth cog. if i change, wht difference can i expect - will it work?
