@oftankoftan 8 ай бұрын

@@nascarisawesome5018 Getting "better" drivetrains is a trap for a commuter. You're not gonna get there faster and tolerances are lower, as well as new parts are much more expensive. I'd rather pay 10 bucks for a new chain than 40+.

@Scatixwasd 7 ай бұрын

most nica kids buy with the intent on thrashing. I’ve seen some of my teammates snap frames just because we’re all reckless xc kids who take it too far out of our comfort zone when we finally get a good downhill just because we never get them. (Unless you’re a Moab, corner canyon, or park city rider but most of them do outlaw instead.)

Dont you dare oust microshift by calling it sub par. It's in no way sub par. The fact that it's still on the bike and what looks untouched is a testament to micro shift advents 9 spd. As it states in the website it's basically bombproof. Also I run it, and I can say that it is true!
