I bought a CX for the first time last year.
Mainly to get back to dropbars , after years on a hybrid with flatbars.
The gearing never really entered my head.
Bit of a change , no granny gears.
50/32 I think , but got used to it. I did look at having it changed , but took the mechanics advice and gave it a couple of months and I'm happy as it is.
Had a look at at some newer bikes recently and the shop staff recommended a 1x 11 set up.
Maybe pushing it a bit.
But I'd need to try before I buy.
