Um no not actually....

That was a once off sponsorship for my tricycle....

I still do support them though just wondering what works better I mean why dont they have an X0 FD.

 

All my other bikes run shimano and I got an exellent deal on X0 so want to see what the whole fuss is about... If I dont like it hello XTR....

Sram don't make an X0 FD... The X-9 is good, but hellishly ugly... I'ts all bulky and black - only seen it in top mount and it's like a lump on your frame.

 

 

 

I've used XT bottom mount and XTR e-type(only for specific frames) and both work brilliantly.

 

 

 

If you have the tom, go for XTR, it just looks that much better... Otherwise, XT, which works just as well

The X9 top swing does not look much different to the Shimano one. But I see unlike the Shimano one, they come in different sizes and you have to specify top or bottom pull.
