Xc racing

Fox 34 factory or rockshox Sid ultimate

Deore you can replace those 2 sprockets but as you said trying to source those 2 sprockets from shimano SA will be a mission

Deore don't make a 12 sp in a 10-45 range which is what I'm currently running

Which cassettes last longer slx or xt?

Perks, experience and just an overall review

Differences, advantages/disadvantages and just a general opinion of them both

Problems and advantages of the gx 12spd mechanical

11-45 gear ratio is it enough and opinions

It comes with a deluxe ultimate on it and I was wondering the differences between the sidluxe ultimate and the deluxe ultimate just to get a general idea of where the advances of each shock is

The old cypher pro came with a deluxe ultimate in the back

A titan cypher pro

What is better for a cross country bike?

Thinking about buying a titan cypher pro thoughts?

I work at the bike shop where I do all the maintenance on my bike, my bike is also not built for a x1 system because my offset is too large which cause the chain to be off centered and sits wrong on the front chainring wrong causing the chain to wear faster, I'm just asking in a general normal circumstance

I find that dry lube keeps your drivetrain the cleanest and it doesn't pack your drivetrain, I use dry wax as my lube and it's very thin, most oils damage the chain(as I see almost every day working in a bike shop) but I ride my bike a lot in the rain and I tend to be a little bit rough with my shifting because of racing especially in xco

That's a considerable amount of mileage on that chain, are you a serious rider or do you just ride as a hobby, the reason that I am asking this is because I put my chain through its paces and I always make sure my drivetrain is clean and once a month I take my chain off and give it a good wash, lately I've been putting in big miles in all weather conditions and my chain has not lasted and I'm on a x1 drivetrain from 2015 so my chain alignment isn't exactly right and also I tend to stay in my harder gears throughout my ride

Do you think because of the groupset cross over there would be a difference in mileage

I was asking how much milage everyone else got because I only got 1500km out of my chain

I've got a sram xx1 11 speed drivetrain but I have a shimano xtr chain, how long should the chain last if you ride mtb
