Great. Thanks for the info... I suppose the next things I need to figure out are:
1. The 29-3s fit the Bontrager 850 wheels on the 8.4... but will they also fit the Bontrager 750 wheels on the 8.3?
2. The 8.3 comes with the Altus FD rather than the Deore. I wonder if the Altus would cause clearance issues with a 29x2 tire. Do you know if the Altus is more bulky than the Deore?
3. If I did want an extra wheelset for quick switch-out, would I have trouble finding compatible ones given the 8.3 is a 24-speed, rather than 27?
4. Finally, what sold you on the 8.4 over the 8.3?
Thanks
