3X Cranksets Are Disappearing
I don't want to start the great 3X vs 2X vs 1X debate. But the 3X just works for me on my touring bike. 3X fans know.
I'm replacing my current 44-32-24 3x10 crankset with this Deore M6000 Hollowtech 10 speed 40-30-22 instead of just replacing individual rings. I wanted a lower range and its fits my touring cadence sweet spots perfectly.
But I found limited new stock availability for this crankset online. Shimano has discontinued it. So, if you ever had a thought about picking one of these up, now's the time before it is gone.
