Great tutorial. I followed it and put a Shimano Deore CSM5100 11/51 on, after some tuning errors on my part, corrected on the 2nd ride, it works great, I don't notice any noise on the lowest gears. It feels faster/smoother than the stock Sunrace 11/42 though I've only a sample size of 1.
Before my 1st ride I did add 2 links to the 116 HG701 I was running while the bike was in the stand as it was making noise in the lowest cogs, it also seemed the top pully had little contact. It did seem to reduce the noise in the stand but that could have been my initial tuning error, or because I was using Hope pully wheels rather than Shimano.
Thank you, you've transformed my ride.

For over a year ago we successfully built a similar upgrade, "bit" more expensive with Ultegra RX derailleur, Garbaruk cage and pulley wheels. But to further extend the range, we ADDED a GRX front derailleur and a FSA Gossamer pro 2x crankset, 30-46, works just fine. (thus even reducing the q-factor to 151mm and extending only by 3mm the crank length to 155mm for the kid)

I love mods like these, I've been gravel riding for 3 years now with a 52t cassette and 36t chainring, these gears are 100% required for any gravel climb.
