Pics
I took a few pics this morning. The whole derail almost completely sits underneth the cassette, no more hitting it on rocks on the right. XT cranks with a salsa bash. The shifter pods are super sleek and Jdog took the indicators off for me which adds tons of options for moving them around. You can also move the pod left or right on the clamp. Finally, I can run my shifter and brake lever where I want!
Take notice to the direct cable routing also. Even though SRAM has direct routing, the cable still makes the bend. This routing goes straight and stays straight. On ly downside I see is if you somehow bent this arm, you would be done.
I rode this around my street last night and the shifting is crisp and the down shiftinh is insanely light.
