Hello
I'm on a tight budget and i need some new shifters for my mountain bike, i've narrowed it down to the following; shimano Deore LX(from ebay) or shimano Alivio (brand new). Can anyone please offer up any advice?
Thanks SV

what year LX and Alivio?
they are both available in different speeds and you need the same version to suite your cassette.
alivio is currently 8spd and LX has not been 8spd for quite some years so they will be quite old (over 10 years IIRC)."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
