I've been using SRAM for about 4+ years now. Worked great for the most part, but I've had some drive train issues that I can't seem to get worked out. I've been considering getting another XT drive train and see how it works out for me.

Its the new Shadow XT rear and the 08 front. I am more of a sram person, thats what came on my bike. I got them as a gift so i decided to use them (plus they were in way better shape than my old stuff), at first the rear didnt seem to shift as good as my X7 but I tweaked it a little more and it works fine now. It might work even better with some quality shifters, i have some sram attack shifters (i like thumb shifting)on there now. The new XT and XTR shifters allow for thumb shifting up and down now. All said and done, I am satisfied with the XT stuff, shifts the same as my Sram did.

What kind of drivetrain issues have you had?

Got a 650b Pacenti steel hardtail in the works, can't wait to get it built up and rollin!
