Helius AC 2013 direct mount front mech

[scarlet]

Anyone have any experience of these?

I've decided not to follow the crowd and go 1X10 so I will be sticking to my trusty double and bash setup when my Helius arrives.

Will the Nicolai custom direct mount mech's work with a 10x22/32/bash setup?

Any issues?

My AC 29er arrived with a Sram X9 2x10 mech which should work just fine with a 10 speed double and bash set up. I haven’t used mine yet, I’m running a Hammerschmidt, but I’m tempted to give it a try to see how much weight I can save by swapping the HS with my XT cranks.

works a treat. can limit tyre size on some models(29er at least) but should be fine on yours
