Seems like it's designed for shimano so it looks like you'll be fine with an 11 speed hyperglide road cassette with a spacer. Assuming you're planning for a single ring up front. I agree it seems to go up to 52 teeth in the lowest gear.
Do you think the levers would work with my rim brakes? I heard it could make the brakes dangerous if the levers are not correct.
I can see someone with a Triban on Ali Xpress with rim brakes so you're probably fine. You need specific levers for v brakes but you probably have road rim brakes yeah?
Triban RC100 has these no name Dual Pivot (if got the terminology right).
I might have found an easier and cheaper option. On this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/bicycling/comments/1266tr6/triban_rc100_sora_drivetrain_upgrade/?tl=fr They install a a Shimano Sora groupe with a 9 speed cassette on the stock rims, so I wondered if a Advent 1x9 or 1x10 would work.
