Looks slick 8) Is the mid ring the same as on a 08 XT crankin that its made from carbon and steel?

Anonymous · July 2008

Middle ring is stainless teeth, on an aluminium ring.
good stuff.

Using technology from the current generation of XT and XTR chainsets the triple will come with a composite/steel middle chainring that doubles durability over the standard middle ring and improves the shifting performance.

I'm going to treat myslef to a Double n' bash version of this next pay day for my Pitch.

How much did you pay?

This crankset must be a better choice over XT, shame it wasnt available when i put my 08 XT on my Pitch!

Lets just say a lot less than retail as I work in a bike shop

it's a mix of Hone/XT/XTR IIRC, designed for all mountain use.

looks really nice!! let us know how it gets on with some rather thorough testing!!

I have to say I think Shimano scores a winner again as I bet this new groupset will be all over 2009 bikes like a rash.
