So I've decided...

After not having much luck selling my faith, I've decided that as my mates getting a van shortly, I might as well keep it.
So, as of now all my earnings are going to go on it. (I warn you, it's a pitiful amount).
I may have around œ300 to spend on it in the next few months, of which the brunt is going on Saints (+bb and ring). Then a new E13 bash, xt rear mech (or, if I can afford should I go sram x7 shifter and x9 rear?), I've just got some fsa bars, and I'm after some Odi lock-ons. In the next year or so, once I've got myself a job and i'm earning a bit more, new wheels and brakes are on the cards, but for now i'll have to make do with my current ones.
Your opinions, are saints worth it? I've bent some raceface ones, and just want the reliability of saints, and to look down and see to great hunks of metal there. [:)]
Also, rear mechs, (gear system infact), sram or shimano?

My friend dirt jumps on Saints, he hasn;t had a problem. Lots of people on the forum use them as well, I doubt you'll find much better for the money

Saints are the bollo<u></u>cks. I've bent, snapped or roudned every crank I've had up until the saints.

My trusty steed
1999 marin wolfridge, Marzocchi Jr Ts, Saint cranks, D321 rims, Hope C2s, raceface bits and bobs, XT running gear. All vintage stuff! (apart from the saints)
