CubeD Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Nice Reign and Nomad above!! buggers! I have a Saint Groupo on my Driver 8 and really enjoy the positive feel on shifting, very direct.Brakes are the business too - 4 pot calipers!
Stellies_gaz Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 Using full Saint/Zee on my AM build. Saint shifter with Zee wide ratio RD. Saint cranks with 34 chain ring. Got XTs stoppers though. Just dig the modulation more as opposed to DH brakes. Quality stuff
Brady219 Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 That's my sworks enduro. Only one like that in the country. Well that color at least. Only 6 sworks enduros I know of in the country all together.
DR ◣◢ Posted March 16, 2015 Posted March 16, 2015 If it has ball bearings it must have the precision and feel of xtr?Those levers with virtually no side to side play, that for me is one of the main reasons that make xtr better than Xt, feature set is otherwise pretty much identical and weight difference is negligible? I run XTR on the Mbuzi and Saint on the M9 and Komodo. Saint has shorter throws on the shiting and feels a little stiffer on the shifts. Also can't do multiple downshifts like the XTR can. XTR is on an XTR mech and the Saints are on Saint mechs. Could be why it feels stiffer. Both are pretty great though.

DR ◣◢ Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Latest Saint shifters can do multiple down and up shifts? I think so. Mine are a little older.
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Was that S-Works mud flap a 2k optional extra?Bliksem, and there's 2 of them!!!
Ryanpmb Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Was that S-Works mud flap a 2k optional extra? It folded out of a swat box hidden in the pedal shaft...
Pipsqueak Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 It folded out of a swat box hidden in the pedal shaft...They'd have a special name for that. Then they'd patent it.
Nofearnofun Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 It folded out of a swat box hidden in the pedal shaft... I am going to check inside the shafts on my pedals when I get home.
Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 It folded out of a swat box hidden in the pedal shaft...In Sausers pre-Epic interview when they launched their bikes he tried to compliment the SWAT box. Best he could do was say that it kept dust out and was organized.Imagine getting a flat, you would dump the contents, fix flat and then not be able to get everything back in the box and end up with it all in your back pocket anyway!!!
Headshot Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Latest Saint shifters can do multiple down and up shifts?yep, you push the release lever to get multi- up shifts and pull it for single up shifts.
Eddy Gordo Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 yep, you push the release lever to get multi- up shifts and pull it for single up shifts.I have deore shifters that do that. I thought it was old tech!
