I forgot the BoM post, I love that lightning GT at least it is not ruined with one chain ring, the Scapin is a nice one too. In my country that trend is over for this period bicycles. I have tried but it is awfull if you don´t have big range in the casette. My point of view is always from the perspective of epic trails and that requires climb hard mountains so ... 10-52 12s or 11-32 or 34-36 double or triple chain ring.
