|   shifter deal..... | jacob
Dec 9, 2001 10:28 PM | | hey all. i was in a bike shop today looking for new shifters and saw a pair of XT shifters for $75. I was thinking of purchasing it but decided not to ( i don't know why i didn't buy it; my conscience just stopped me). I have $100 to spend on shifters. Whadya think: is $75 for XT shifters a good deal?? thanks everybody. |

Dec 9, 2001 10:46 PM | | Are the XT's Pods or Shifter/Brake Levers?
For 8 Speed Pods I've seen 'em as cheap as cheap as $59 or as much as $80. For 9 speed closer to $70.
For shifter brake levers...Around $85 for 9 speed.
Much more for 8 speed if you can fine em.
Might be able to find a slightly better deal on line or used, but also will have shipping charges. If it's close, and the shop's decent support 'em.

Dec 9, 2001 11:07 PM | | I paid $68 for XT 9-speed shifters, without brake levers, at Jenson a few months ago. $75 at the LBS isn't bad at all because I had to pay for shipping & handling, which proobably brought my cost up around $75 anyway. |
