Starting to feel a lot like xmas
Seriously it isn't. But still some new toys to install on my bike have. Even got a FREEEEEBIE!!! Spare deraileur x.9 I didn't order and a free upgrade to x.9 on my existing order.
Maybe now my shifting will be fixed by replacing all the broken parts I have worn through haha.

Mounted on the bike. Very smooth so far, but I already knew that. My concern is durability. I have done many short term tests and by far and away prefer the shifting of sram to shimano...will it last...I hope so

I have found the SRAM to hold up to alot of abuse and still not miss a shift. All our bikes have been switched over. Enjoy

Hey Maelstrom would you tell Brown Santa to drop some bike junk off at my place too??? I haven't bought bike parts in so long that I've forgotten the rush of shiny parts.
