Hello everybody.
I have a road bike that I intend to make smart-trainer only... it has some issues with the frame, but it can work very nice in the smart-trainer. The frame is carbon, disk-break, flat-mount, but for the new purpose, I just want to fit the cheapest decent rim-brake capable to shift 11 cogs (11-34), and some cheap 1x crankset that can resist nonetheless to the job.
What would you recommend?
-
Sensah groupset and SENICX crankset?
-
Zele (Driveline) crankset are quite cheap and very good (made in Taiwan). I use one set for CX/Gravel and other for road, for more than a year (10K Km) and no issues.

Tektro road brake levers, Shimano compatible right side bar end 11 speed shifter and RD.

The Sensah equivalent is about the same price.
Senicx crankset is tried and tested by many including myself. Super reliable.

Again the price is showing up wonky. It’s about $60.

No, you've got it wrong. The 122USD is the REAL price, but thankfully you get a great discount now on Ali that makes the price a lot lower ;D
