Did you try friction with 11 speeds? My friction shifters work with 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 speed cogs. I might try 11 next month. Why do you think 11 will not work with friction shifters? I use suntour power thumb shifters, they are on bike #6 now. The bar end shifters, I have used only on a 9 speed cassette.
They are going 11 to get rid of the front derailleur. As the chain stay gets shorter and shorter, there is no room for a derailleur on the front any more

That is true. Also not so many triple cranksets in 11 speed.

IMHO 11 speed is Overspending. whereas the 14 speed Rohloff is an investment.
Specialized K cassette has plenty of range when combined with a triple crank .

Yes
The question is will my friction shifters still work. My power thumb shifters should work. Maybe. Bar end shifters seem less precise, may the guy that said no has those. If you have trigger shifters you need new shifters to change the number of gears. I am going to find out. It could be that I will have to buy something else to make it work, maybe maybe not.
Going back to original post.
22 34 should be more than enough granny gear. 22 34 on a 26 inch wheel is a lower gear than 22 36 on a 29 inch wheel.
An xt 22 tooth chain ring is what $18?
Shimano is using a 30 tooth chain ring with the 11 42 cassette. For a double crank, they are using the 11 40 cassette, still with a 30 tooth chain ring.
I have a 28 40, I need a larger cassette.
