Ive always used shimano gearing. I used to have a crappy shimano acera rear and also an alivio rear in my time, all though they are bottom of the line, they shifted ok, but they barely moved around. I do dh,freeride stuff, so I thought id upgrade, didnt have much money so I got a Shimano deore LX. It does shift really well, but it moves around like crazy and always smashes into my frame on the smallest bumps.
Should I just upgrade again to shadow slx, or xt, or should I completely change everything and get something like a sram x7 shifter and derailluer, thats probably the max I could afford. Would the change be really worth it, or are the slx's and xt's fine, and have their design been fixed (swinging around and smashing into swingarms). Pretty sure the website says the slx has been fixed.
Tell me your thoughts.
