Hi Abu. Thanks for your reply I'm currently running the stock 11-28. Yeah I'm being intentionally vague about exact GI ranges mostly because, honestly, I'm new to this and dont understand it all. I'm more concerned about making sure that I can fit these parts on the bike and peoples opinions on said parts and compatibility with the Tern D8.
The Shimano XT 11-36 also comes in 11-34, 11-32, and 11-28. I just know I need a bigger top gear for spinning up the Andes! Not exactly sure which one would be perfect.
