Hi,

 

Please can anyone offer advise on this bike. Just viewed one with the following spec:

 

SRAM XX rear derailer

SRAM X0 frnt derailer

XO brakes

fox shocks

2 x10 speed

 

The bike looks great but I have not taken it for a ride yet. I have not reaaly heard of this bike before so would welcome some advise or readers experiences.

 

Cheers

Ian

Components are everything these days. Frames are getting more and more similar, particularly in hard tail mode. What cranks? And wheels?

I am not 100% sure on the crank but think it was the X0 10 speed Crankset

Thanks for the help. In your opinions of the Titan vs the Scott

 

Which bike is spec'ed the best. Is the Shimano XT in line with the Sram X0 and XX. Does it really matter having a frame that has a lifetime gaurantee - surely you only need 3 or so years?

Although i love scott and the scale pro 29er is a great bike i think the titan with X0 spec is better value for money. You have to rate X0 higher than XT even though XT might be bit more durable

Go for Shimano components. Durability is better than Sram.

 

I have to admit. On my road bike, my Sram wears way quicker than when I had Shimano on.
