Sounds to me that all drivetrains are both shit and amazing.
Yes Moorey, they can be both!

No you missed the part where anything GX/NX/SX Eagle is unmitigated dog shit.

Some are amazingly shit!
12 speed Deore mechs with XTR jockey wheels is the secret, all the performance for $100. 11 speed or 12 speed it doesn't matter.
Having had GX 11 speed it was a joke, truly shit. Having said that the XT/XTR 11 speed didn't thrill me either. X0/XX1 is the best 11 speed drive train I've ridden but is total shit compared to xtr 12 speed.

Aye. XTR 12 speed on old mate's Cotic. It's amazing. Beats his AXS stuff...

I have XX1-11 on my Trek race bike, its awesome.
X0-10 WOW even 3000km and thinking about new cables, its still as smooth as butter. I have still 3 x X0 10spd derailleur/shifter combos, currently on skids race bikes, it will be coming back to me.
It was only with SRAM 12spd that my hate started, tolerances are too narrow and range is too great for shit shims and sloppy mechanisms.

At least you dont feel like a virgin again.
I have a mix matched xt 12 speed derailleur/shifter with gx eagle cassette, chain, cranks.. It’s still 50% shit. The gx cassette is balls.. The cranks are horrible to service, the stupid dub self extracting cap fell off somewhere and now i can’t get the cranks off to trouble shoot a creak in the garbage dub BB.. That’s after bending a diy breaker bar trying get the main bolt out..
Chain life is impressive though..

That’s because realistically a 140 will pull your vertically challenged frame up just fine.

I’m short, but ‘big boned’.That’s because realistically a 140 will pull your vertically challenged frame up just fine.
That said, when I jump on the one bike with 160/180, I honestly don’t feel that much difference coming from 180/203......though it’s not doing long descents with me dragging the brakes.

Pffft, I'm holding out for the 230mm rotors that will give an extra 15% more stopping power,

I like a 200 on the front but will be going back to 180 from 200 on the rear. It’s more brake than I need.
Not sure an average sized person anywhere in Australia really needs a 220.
