Sram Dance

Sram 1X in the peloton starts the twits lathering.  But the struggle is real for the riders, apparently.  The single ring rigs can work on the road if they work on mountain bikes.  IF.  If everything works right.  But the stakes in pro riding are the highest in the biz, so if you're going to run dumb shit like 1X drivetrains and disc brakes on the road, you had better make sure you use every widget and trick and cheat from off-road racing to make them reliable--and watch the overall weight of the bikes go up.  That's racing!
