think im going for the 456 on one...but as we speak on one are out of stock on all groupsets... however i have noticed in the blog they are planning on restocking on the shinny new slx! anyone here got 1st hand experience with them? any good compared to that of xt? etc...

little concerned its a burly set, so weight will be compromised?!

cheers

    Apparently it's not out yet, so you will be hard pushed to find opinions! I would imagine there will be a weight increase over XT, but then it will be stronger stuff.

    XT is tried and tested and Merlin Cyles & Chain Reaction both have good prices on these groupsets. Go for XT.
