Grootgert Posted July 29, 2019 Share My entire SLX m675 2×10 drivetrain on my Trance is due for replacement due to wear. While I am at it, I may as well upgrade. I recently got a new 2019 frame on a warranty claim, so it will be worth my while.Does anybody know when the XT 8100 or SLX 7100 1×12 upgrade kits will become available locally?

Grootgert Posted July 29, 2019 Share Thanks Naas! I will check it out now. Depending on the price, I may prefer to go 7100. Any idea when to expect that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What wheels do you have?Are they upgrade able to Shimano Microspline ? i.e. DT Swiss hub ?OrWill you go E-Thirteen 9-50 cassette (with Sram XD) ?OrWill you go Sunrace 11-50 which fits on a std Shimano freehub ? Also check that if you are using your current wheels on the new frame that they are compatible (Boost spacing etc) nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also check that if you are using your current wheels on the new frame that they are compatible (Boost spacing etc)When Giant replaced my frame I had to upgrade the rear hub to boost. The rest of the questions I cannot answer. That is the reason why I am reluctant to buy online. I would prefer to go to my local shop and get them to order the correct stuff from their suppliers and fit it for me. The local shops say these components are not yet available to them through their suppliers. That was the real reason for my enquiry. I can still wait a while though...

There was a XT 1x 11 speed though. Would it make any difference, is a 1x 32 crankset compatable with 11 speed and 12 speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V18 Posted July 30, 2019 Share I would go 1x11 with a 50t cog. The 12 is great but I can't recall wanting that extra gear. And being a big guy... Maybe a x11 will be better. More pin material to wear through than the x12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
