What am I getting for the extra $ with the XTR that is not in the Deus? Is it truly much more than a weights saving of what looks about 100 grams or so (please correct me since I am probably off on this one)? It sounds like some of the Deus cranksets have problems loosening up on the drive-side...has this been corrected? It looks like I can get the Deus for $230 and the XTR for quite a bit more of course so I am hoping there are tangible differences to justify the signficant difference in price.
These will be for a project bike I am building up (Ti hardtail) that will be used for XC racing and non-technical rides with my friends who are hard-core racer-boys who really make me work too hard to keep up on my trailbike.
If there are other cranksets that are recommended please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
