I have Rival CX1 on my SuperX and it's great. It's my "winter" and foul weather bike so the cost of replacing the drivetrain is about the same as a Red cassette. Since we both live on Long Island we know there are no mountains so replacing the 11-28 with a 11-32 means there's nothing I can't get up with a 40T in the front.
There is no single bike that does everything, so we can't assume there's a drivetrain that does everything. There's certainly a place for 1x but it's not for everyone.

Leaking brakes just isn't a common issue. Like I said in the first post, "sounds like a problem caused by a mechanic or factory assembly worker".

No issues with SRAM or Shimano
Wireless is cleaner, easier to install, hoses are no maintenance, and that is nice too
Prefer the feel of SRAM, but i guess that just comes down to personal preference
