Enormous cassette cog
I guess if you're heading to Colorado or the California Cascades, you'll need a 40 tooth cassette cog.
First time I've seen it. Talk about mountain climbing!

Why go with that when you can go with the SRAM XX1 and get a 42t cog that is designed to work with the rest of the components?

Again, I didn't know about that either. It's like the second chainring on most road cranks.

Huge cogs like that are so you can run a 1x mountain set up.

Not really, no.
Get a stainless steel Surly chainring next time, they last well.

Does only having one chainring translate to less wear on the teeth? I go through chainrings like....something people go through quickly.... and I'm tired of it.

Of course I'm much more familiar with super large chainrings used for breaking land speed records. These have been surpassed by dual chainrings mounted in series.
