1X9 with Eno Crankset

[darkclouds]

Curious if anyone tried running 1X9 using an ENO crankset. I'm going from SS to 1X9 (I know, blasphemy) and am anticipating problems with chain drop. Anyone suggest a good chain guide for this application would be appreciated. Oh, and the guys at the path is ordering me a Rohloff chain guide thingy. Just looking for some info. thanks

I use the Rohloff Chainguide on my Dos 1x9. It's customized (by Justin) because I've got a 28T chainring. When I was crashed into at the start of Counting Coup (that guy must be out there reading my posts about him taking me out and not feeling bad, don't you think? I bring it up like weekly) I lost both bottles, sunglasses, etc.. someone stepped on my top tube and I was bleeding from many locales, but my chain never dropped off.

thanks allison. Sounds like the rohloff will work fantastically especially since I am not going to get run over and stepped on (at least I don't plan to).

Hope you've completely healed by now.

Trust me, dude, I didn't plan on it either!
