However, I wanted your esteemed opinions on this endeavor. Is this still relegated to mad scientists and fringe eccentrics, or is this feasible without much tinkering these days?

Thanks!
Get an Athena or Potenza longer cage rear der and the Campag cogset that goes to 32t..or if ya got a 11s rear wheel, a 6800 11-32..with same rear der choices.

If ya got a 10s shimano wheel, use 10 of 11 cogs..take out a 18t..or take out the 11t and find a 11s first position 12t.
