Wait until you see the 2003 LX. It has to be the most outrageously ugly component group in the history of cycling. Looks like something you'd be able to buy on the Home Shopping Network.

Those components look like ****. Do you have any pics of the new XT (if there is a new XT). Are old XTR cranks hollow? that sounds a bit wierd.

About the only thing those would look good on would be a bike of that bronze color. I can't imagine how ugly that would be on say a red bike.
