I'll make you a deal.... I'm thinking of taking my SS and turn it into a 1x10 Then balance is restored again

Ed Zackery the same.

The only difference I'd say would be wider bars - sometimes you need to wrench that one gear to get it up a hill!

Oh and wider tyres if you're going rigid.

sorry but whats up with wider tyres?

When you go rigid wider tyres act as the only "suspension" you have.

ESI grips also go from "nice to have" to "essential".

So, no front suspension? Solid fork?

"So, no front suspension? Solid fork?"

Carbon, Steel or Titanium. All have some flex compared to Aluminium.

Im considering riding with a pair of over gloves for extra padding on the SS.

At the moment the steel fork, Fizik grips and 2.4" tyre is doing the job quite nicely. I have gloves with padding in the palms.
