Price Paid:
$60.00
Purchased At:
Chain Reaction Cycles
Strengths:
Strong: goodbye derailleur hangers!
Weaknesses:
Integrated system: have to buy the hub (& possibly rotors too). Not a crisp as XTR or even XT. It's a hassle if you have to take the wheel off for whatever reason...
Similar Products Used:
XTR, XT, LX, X9
Bike Setup:
05 Enduro, stock except for the Hone cranks, rear hub and derailleur.
Bottom Line:
As someone who seems to always bend derailleur hangers, I'm quite happy with this product. It definitely does not shift as crisply as the XTR that it replaced, but I don't care, caus' I can adjust it properly so the alignment is always perfect. This also makes up for the hassle of the derailleur and chain being loose when removing the rear wheel.
