|   Worth upgrading from LX Shifters? | Little Frog
Jan 4, 2004 9:59 AM | | I ride a 2003 Ellsworth Truth.
It currently has LX shifters with everything else being XTR.
Should I look to upgarde to XT or XTR?
Is the performance noticably better? |

Jan 4, 2004 1:59 PM | | I upgraded to XT and didn't notice any significant improvemnet. Waste of money to be honest. Ride until they fail. |
| Ditto what Steve F said... | Schtoo
Jan 5, 2004 6:31 AM | | Yes it is noticable. Is the improvment worth it? No.
Plus, getting XT/XTR shifters is getting more difficult all the time. My LBS had to really hunt down the ones he got 3 months ago, and said forget it in the future.
If you decide to try it and can't get a shifter, try the road trigger shifter. Ultegra level I think for triathlon bars I think. It's basically XT without a label. ;) |
