Ridden it? Or assumption...?Puff piece.
American Classic went out of business a couple of years ago, so no chance.American Classic, unlikely to get a driver. Cannondale is less likely given it is 135QR.
I have a set of DTSwiss sitting there in 27.5 so they might be a chance. Otherwise no go. Eleven has proven enough but you know not as good as eleventy two!American Classic went out of business a couple of years ago, so no chance.
Cannondale will be a type of OEM hub.
If it is DT 350/240 you should be alrightI have a set of DTSwiss sitting there in 27.5 so they might be a chance. Otherwise no go.eleven has proven enough but you know not as good as eleventy two!
And 360. Cheap ones one AliExpress.If it is DT 350/240 you should be alright
If it is so much cleverer and faster , changes in 1/3 the time ,why hasnt it come out before this ?Ridden it? Or assumption...?
There really are no new big developments left with bike design unless we pull hard left or right and head down a completely different development path, everything is now incremental gains.If it is so much cleverer and faster , changes in 1/3 the time ,why hasnt it come out before this ?
Shimano introduced hyperglide about 1990 so whats different ?
Or are they saying that going to 12 speed 10-51 would not change well without hyperglide +?
Don't know why it hasn't come out earlier - I can't answer for Shimano, I guess it either took a long time to figure out or they sat on a patent for a long time. Wouldn't have been easy to design though.If it is so much cleverer and faster , changes in 1/3 the time ,why hasnt it come out before this ?

Do you feel that you have a consistent finger action when shifting? Eagle seems to respond better when you shift like you intend to ie. a quick and deliberate finger action on the shift levers. Having ridden X01 again more recently (broken hand rehab good enough to start taking chances on the dually), there is a slightly crisper feel to the X01 shifter action compared to GX, almost like it helps to ensure a more consistent shifting action regardless of how you operate the shifter. With GX there could be a little more variability, so consistent finger action might play a bigger part in shifting performance? Just a theory...I’m not too fussed by being able to shift under load, 30 years of habit has me managing to change when I need to. Not mangling cassettes anyway...
I just want consistent and reliable shifting and Eagle isn’t doing that. One in ten shifts will hang for a second or go click click click as it tried to engage and it drives me nuts.
Dunno... I press the button!Do you feel that you have a consistent finger action when shifting?

I swap between bikes one has gx eagle the other xt 1x11.. Sram requires more force on the shifter to change.. I used to think the m8000 xt was too firm but not now I have side by side comparison.. I imagine the new xt would be very good..Dunno... I press the button!
I’ve been mountain biking since the days of friction levers, and have lived the evolution of shifting ever since. Never questioned my lever pressing technique yet
My eagle is GX with the X01 derailleur mod and an X01 shifter. @K.C. is on the money i think, as well as it just generally being a bit flexy.
Dunno... not ridden the Shimano 12 speed yet, keen to see how it goes. I hope they’ve cured the heavy lever action of the XT 10 speed I had - that started my love affair with SRAM with the wonderful X01 11 speed which was a delight.
I think where 1x10 will make a comeback is in the ebike market as the chains are stronger and more durable.I recently helped a mate out "upgrading" his 10 speed bike to 12 speed XT. Wasn't exactly impressed with the way it works, the cassette mount is weird in a way that the 10t cog was "dangling". Can't explain it. Just different. No it wasn't the hub incompatibility as the hub was XT 12 speed.
The shifting was better in that it was smoother.
The crank has this lockring that goes behind the chainring to lock it up. That cause problem with his existing bb as it makes the spindle too short. Well we sused out a different bb for him as the drivetrain didn't come with one, which is nuts.
Well, I'm happy to say I'll stick by my 1x10 system running 30T chainring 42T cassette. Works just fine, not 5 star shifting, but it works and doesn't break my bank account when i need to replace the parts. The old 10 speed will most likely last more kms than the new 12 speed as well. I could be wrong, but regardless, it's still cheaper to replace.
I wasn't suggesting that you don't know how to change gears, just wondering if changes in shifting is a contributor to the variability in shifting with your GX derailleur ie. does hand fatigue makes a difference etc. My apologies if it didn't come across as intended.Dunno... I press the button!
