Just wondering about clearance, BB/crank options and what group to look at from and from whom?
ex 2 x10, 1x12 or???
Bike would be used for grocery getting and tackling some hills too.
Thank you!

So if you are just casually riding, a 1X9 is perfectly fine. But if you are going to make the bike into a gravel bike, I say stick with a 3X8 or 3X9 system and set it up with old school bar ends and run some 26 x 1.95 or 26 X 2.1" tires.
