For mtb drivetrain nerds I think the best combination of range / weight / shifting / rock clearance is the 11 spd SRAM xx1 shifter / derailleur with the E13 9-46 T cog set.
511% range obviously blows the setup in the article out of the water. And you don’t need to modify the derailleur.
But yeah, for anyone forced to use the older Shimano freehub this Garbaruk option is nice.
