My Sram XO 8speed system is a pound and a 1/3 lighter than this system. Where is the improvement? the 50 tooth gear for slackers?
Dennis,
We are unclear about how you have your XO 8speed group set up but regardless it sounds like you are a super strong rider. The simplicity, durability, compatibility of a 1X 12speed group and the VERY affordable price of $375 a few reasons people are excited for the NX Eagle system to hit. Us included!
Comparing X0 vs entry level NX? Not really like for like is it Dennis?
