1x10 saint or 1x11 xt/xtr

[Suwidah]

Hi guys

I want to uppgrade my current 1x8 and I'm using bafang with 48T chainring. The reason to upgrade is that I can't find quality components for 8 speed system. I want to buy Saint shifter and RD, XT 11-36. Then I Saw the price isn't much from 11 speed system and it's more future proof.

 

I did my calculations and found out that it will cost me:

247€ for

- saint shifter

-saint derailleur

-KMC x11e ept

-M771 11-36

-Jagwire elite sealed

 

314€ for

-M9000 shifter

-M8000 derailleur

-XT 11-46

-Jagwire elite sealed

-KMC X11E ept

 

283€ :

-M8000 shifter

-M8000 derailleur

-XT 11-46

-Jagwire elite sealed

-KMC X11E ept

 

And now I'm completely lost. The Saint shifter has 4 multi bearing construction and the M8000 has only 2, therefore I added M9000 to my consideration! 1x11 more range and appealing big cog 46, while the saint is cheaper and 1x10 has thicker chain which I guess more longevity to my e bike.

 

I need your suggestions guys!!
