Recently moved from a 2x10 XT w/ Turbine crank to a 1x12 SRAM w/ NextR crank (same bike) - what surprised me as the most noticeable difference? The NextR’s stiffness and ability to put down power put a much bigger grin on my face than any other aspect of the fresh, crisp new drivetrain.
The weight savings was noticeable but the difference in stiffness was surprising and stunning... My $0.02, noting I can’t comment on durability yet (noting the Turbines had 5 years on them).
