i was looking at the giant glory zero 08 spec, mainly looking at the gears

SRAM X.7 18 speed triggers
Shimano Saint front mech
SRAM X.9 rear mech

i want some saint craanks as well, but, was wondering is a could get better upgrades of these parts (excluding cranks) ? i don't want x.o and don't mind if they're shimano or sram.
people said i was dumb, but i showed them...

    X9 triggers and X7 mech. the triggers have the greatest effect on the feel. but the money there.
