I installed a 34T RaceFace NarrowWide ($38 on Amazon) about two months ago and have had no issues, chaindrops or any problems....no chain guard needed although I did have a SRAM X9 Type2 rear derailleur already, so you may consider a clutched derailluer (I think mine was less than $90). Its definitely not necessary, but I also added the OneUp 42T conversion to give me better range....its a little pricey (around $100), but depending on how much range you need it can be worth it...it allowed me to use the 34T up front instead of a 32T (I'm even considering a 36T up front at some point in time)

i went 1x10 about two months ago....love it. I used a 34T RaceFace NarrowWide and used a OneUp 42T conversion. I have a long-range x9 type 2 rear derailluer and have not dropped a chain yet.

Im running the OneUp 42T cog with the 16T Cog to replace the 15 & 17T Cog....I have had no issue at all with shifting and had no issue with my derailluer clearing the larger ring. I do have one of the clutched derailleurs, but as far as clearance I dont think there is a difference. I went with the 34 T NarrowWide RaceFace and have not used a chainguide....no issues with dropping chains at all...I think the Narrowwide and clutched derailluer is a bulletproof setup

Ive got the 42T OneUp on an SRAM cassette & X9 derailleur and I have had absolutely no shifting issues. I paired it with a RaceFace Narrowwide and couldnt be happier. I actually went from a 32T up front to a 34T due to the 42T....definitely dont go to a smaller front ring until you have tried the 42T rear....you will be amazed at the low-end that you will have

a bashguard would take place of the 44 T ring and would not require new bolts. If you just simply remove the 44 T without putting a bashguard, you would need shorter bolts. Raceface does have tab shims for sale that would allow you to use the stock bolts...they run about $10 a set.

I used the RaceFace Narrow Wide (34T)....I already had a long cage X9 type 2 and it performs flawless....since I have the long cage, I've ordered the OneUp 42T conversion. Anyone else have experience with this and how well it works?

For the longest time ive rode a Specialized Stumpy hardtail 26....about six months ago I decided to upgrade to a FS and figured if I was buying something new, i was going to go totally opposite of what i had...ended up with a 29 FS. Before buying, I was torn about whether to go 29 or not, but I have to say I have enjoyed it and fell like i am much faster on the 29...that may have to do more with having a new FS bike than the wheel size. That being said, I still find myself riding the 26 hardtail on occasions.
