  • Flat bar rd: currently 3x10
  • Mtb hardtail: currently 2x9
  • Mtb trail: currently 1x11 (replacing with a Scott Spark 960 with Shimano XTd 1x12)
Apart from the mtb trail, which is being replaced with a 1x12 bike, it makes sense for the other bikes to all be 10sp drivelines, then I can keep spare chains and links readily available.

Has anyone else settled on 10sp drive-trains for their general road bikes?
I've got a 2x10sp setup on my Fargo for touring which is awesome.
