I've been considering trying the triple since XTR was announced, but it was definitely expensive for an experiment. That line of XTR is being replaced and the mountain triple now all but dead.

Last week I saw some better prices to make me reconsider, but this weekend found it for $70. Coupled with an XT rear the price is reasonable enough to try!

I have rings for a 30-39-50 set-up and will start with that.
