Dilemma

[Benjy15]

Hi Guys, I'm looking for opinions regarding replacing my Giant XTC with mostly XT components (front derailleur is Deore) with a GT Zaskar Pro (with full XT components). I know this topic is quite subjective, like asking, do you like BMW or Mercedes. In your opinion what are the pro's and cons of my Giant and the GT?

 

I'm looking to upgrade my front & rear hubs to XTR. Do I 'waste' the money on the Giant?

Maybe consider Sram components too, I have seen them get a bit of love here lately. In only have the bottom of range on my KHS, but I am impressed with the solid and accurate changes.

Sorry, if I've got this wrong? You are keeping both bikes?

Sram is king and easy to maintain. My 2c.

uhm....I prefer the Giant, that my opinion.

Hi I got the GT Zaskar pro for the better parts and I love it.

Hi Tumbleweed, I have the Giant but will have to sell to finance the GT.

Sorry Benjy...I just realised that I completely misunderstood your question..

Oh,, cool, sorry for misreading! I think the Zaskar is an awesome machine. I've been drooling over one in the shop for a while now (maybe I can get a discount for it being shop-soiled). Although I'm a Giant fan at heart, I'd say got for it!
