so is third thread dy and i'm still not on the list?

SRAM expensive ka? no lah. just the shifters only. im still using my deore RD.
nope. can't afford that either.

SRAM attack, rocket shifters model that can only be used with shimano RDs. Other than that, you cant use it. because of the ratio difference. 2:1 and 1:1. I suggest you to go for X9 model. if you can get it that cheap.

Or you could just swap every single thing on the bike!

mushr00m,
Nah...not really...the only different between Shimano n SRAM is thumb n finger shifting.

Shimano XT trigger shifter - Push thumb to 32T / Pull finger to 11T
SRAM X.7 trigger shifter - Push thumb to 32T / Push thumb to 11T

If u use the XT shifter ur thumb n finger will be on the shifter pod but ur finger also needs to be on ur brake lever as well. If you use the X.7 shifter pod ur thumb will be doin all the shifthing up n down n u can safely use ur fingers on the brake lever whole time.

Both Shimano n Sram are good products it just that you have to get use of it. I know that SRAM shiftinng are more precise.

mushr00m,
yeah..if everything goes well I'll meet you up tonite around 2100hrs? Wanna to meet up at PJ State A&W?

Where is this Putra Heights?

anyways, where are your guys' favourite LBS?

Anyways, Sunday afternoon ride! 2.30pm FRIM front gate!

Put in another RM100 and you can get a Fox Talas. A 'musang' beats RS any time at any level.
