Sram X.9 Vs. Shimano Xtr


GTF

Recommended Posts

both are good, there are advantages to both.

The sram is already locked out

The cable doesnt loop around the back

but they are heavier

The frame bolt is alloy and non replacable

the cable guide around the rear is plastic and gets damaged

they are ugly

The shimano xtr is lighter

Doesnt have a cable adjuster on the rear to snap off.

the frame bolt is easily replacable

you can get it in reverse pull (BIG plus in my books)

better looking.

But they dont come with really short arms, so you have to mod it.

They hit the chainstays if not locked out

and the might be a bit weaker than a sram

cant go wrong with either really, but I use shimano as they come with reverse pull which I like.
