I considered a 1x, but I've grown to appreciate the small gear jumps offered with a 2x ultra compact.
it's OK in the 11. the RD is pretty much maxed in the 40, which is really what set the chain length.

i wouldnt have gone 1x if this frame were not designed specifically for it (no braze ons for FD cables)

i do think it's going to work out OK though. i dont really ever need the top end speed, and now i have a lower than 1:1 for climbing the nasty stuff.
