Last time I found a bargain I shared it, then everyone else ordered them all and by the time I went to order they were out of stock. No such mistake today!

Yep, I'll see you at the Duke (Duke William right? Just up from the FC car park?)

Just bought 3 XT rear mechs! Amazing prices.

spongtastic · October 2011

Sold out of all the XT goodies.

johnsav · October 2011

supersonic bought them all

bails87 · October 2011

Coming soon Super's Super XT Emporium!

I've bought most of what I need to go from 2*9 to 1 or 2*10, not quite everything though, I'll just stash this away until my current setup is knackered. If I'd bought it all I'd want to fit it as soon as it arrived!

There's always one that has to spoil it for everyone else.....

supersonic · October 2011

Of course they are going on my 3 bikes, not on ebay for £45 ;-)

Missed the SLX brakes though!

bails87 · October 2011

Hmmm., everything except the shifters have been dispatched. The shifters are apparently "nicht lieferbar".

The Northern Monkey · October 2011

Bastards... could have got rid of the shite X9 on the boardman

Stevo_666 · October 2011

I'm p1ssed off because I don't actually need to buy any bike gear at the moment !

ricardo_smooth · October 2011

they have some more XT rear mechs looking at the website, was gonna be a censored and buy one to sell. then my conscience got the better of me!

supersonic · October 2011

XT 10 speed is leagues ahead of X9 IMO.

i've got x9 on my bike and i've had nothing but problems with it..so yes, i'd definately replace it with XT as i've had no problems at all with the SLX on my other bike!!

bails87 · October 2011

I've got 9 speed x9 and X0 and it's been flawless, just to balance things up. From what I've heard there is a gap on the 10 speed stuff though.

i'm sure they're good otherwise no-one would buy their stuff

just my preference i'd but shimano in the future (i'm not trying to start another sram vs shimano war)

junglist_matty · October 2011

I have the XT 10 speed, I was very surprised how much better than the 9speed XT it is....

In fact, the XT 10 speed (2011) shifts a hell of a lot better than the XTR Carbon (from 2010).

wilkij1975 · October 2011

Just got some new XT brakes for £135 posted! Didn't come with fixings or rotors but they don't over here either and they'll come in at about £200.

I've had a few test rides on bikes with Shimano stuff now, and TBH I could live with either. The XTR on that Whyte 146X was luuuuuuvely though
