Speeltyd Posted January 24, 2016 Posted January 24, 2016 I crossed to the dark side (Clearly I am very excited about my new bike. This is the 4th photo I have posted. Bordering on spam now...)Got the same under my roof - excellent bike. What's with the XT and X9 - better than the GX?
GrantRH Posted January 24, 2016 Author Posted January 24, 2016 Lots of people raving about the XT 1x11, which i think is close to the equivalent of GX 1x11.

Did you fit new forks? in the first photo it doesnt look like it can come up much.
Long Wheel Base Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 The top photo is how it is now ....O ok. Makes sense. Sorry just presumed it was before and after.
Patchelicious Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 The top photo is how it is now ....Yoh, you went racey... nice!! Looks really good. And FAST.
splat Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Got the same under my roof - excellent bike. What's with the XT and X9 - better than the GX?Nothing wrong with the GXI just wanted XT (incl pedals and brakes) and this was a good opportunity to try 1x11.

NotSoBigBen Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 O ok. Makes sense. Sorry just presumed it was before and after.No worries mate I should have mentioned it
NotSoBigBen Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Yoh, you went racey... nice!! Looks really good. And FAST.Just a pet hate having to cut steerer tubes, always scared I get it wrong. Since I'd lost almost 30kg's from last years Fast One to now I reckoned it would be ok ... Will see how it goes on Sunday [emoji1303] On my training road bike the setup is a lot closer to how the race bike is now so I don't think it will be a problem. Patchelicious 1
