Hello Jur


Since we are talking about XTR we can easily change for a "Dura Ace" talk or even "Campagnolo" talk. This time I will stay with the Shimano talk. First of all I would suggest 28 spokes 1.8/1.5, of course 451 mm wheel. As rear hub, Capreo hub + cassette, as front hub XTR or Dura-Ace, it's your choice. With a Capreo rear cassete you can assemble with a front 52 or 53 teeth chain wheel (and crank) Ultegra or Dura-Ace of course. This drivetrain gives you the confortable 3.0 to 8.8 gain ratio. The last 3 recomendations are Thomson seatpost, flat handlebar and ofcourse Swalbe stelvio tires.
