|  What sequence in upgrade to XTR? | wetwonder Aug 15, 2003 3:37 PM | | I have a mix of deore,xt and lx components. I want to upgrade to XTR - gear pull/lever, derailers, chain, cassette. (I'm sticking with Truvativ Stylo crank.) But I can only afford to upgrade one part at a time. Can anyone suggest which components should come in first, and what order?
Thanks. |
|  the one that breaks first | laffeaux Aug 15, 2003 4:47 PM | | You'll not notice enough of a change to justify the price. When something breaks, replace it with XTR. If the part is still good, keep on riding it. |
|  Wait 'til the stuff wears out, then.. | Brace1 Aug 15, 2003 4:51 PM | | Easy for me to say since I already upgraded all my stuff before anything wore out (it's a sickness).
I would do the shifters, rear derailleur (front XTR won't be a good move since you appear to have compact not standard rings), SRAM chain, then cassette only if you're a weight weenie. |
