My cross wheels carry a 28 as the bottom gear, that's with a single chainring @36. For the Three Peaks next year I am going to fit the biggest pussy plate my mech will handle, but stick with the single up front. Range 11 - 32??

Thats gorgeous Mr V..... the far forward saddle position looks a little odd but im sure its like this for good reason....

Tip of the saddle 20 mm behind bottom bracket. All my bikes have this position, it's where I get the best power delivery.
Thanks for the compliment.
Saw the new 2014 Focus Mares 1.0 in the local dealer yesterday:
In a showroom full of high end Pinarello's this was actually getting MORE attention.....me likey a lot. What shocked me the most was the weight, it's so light.
Ugly.

I love dem Focus rigs. Hawt.
The Niner is a gravel bike apparently. Not supposed to be a CX race bike, hence the curious chainset / rear mech arrangement.
@VamP I run 39/12-28. Which I'm training into
With a short cage mech I suspect you could get away with 12-34. The short cage SRAM on my bike will take 11-36 if that's your bag. Your's looks like a long cage som bung on anything that you like.

Have just taken delivery of this beauty, which seems worth resurrecting the thread for...
Unfortunately, it's not mine, just borrowed for a photoshoot, but I'm hoping to do at least a couple of races on it. The colour is incredible - they call it 'acid pink'. In the publicity shots on the Specialized website, it looks a bit dark, but in real life it's really punchy. Nicely specced too, with SRAM Rival 1x and Roval SLX 24 wheels.

With Ritcheys own (Logic) stem, bars, seat-pin, wheels, chain-set, tyres, cantilevers, etc......
