I’m about to purchase a pair of Zebs for my 5. I’ll be switching brakes from my manual bike over which are XT 8120’s. I found the tektro brakes a little hard work on some of the stuff I ride. Great modulation, but lacking the grunt. I didn’t find the rear shock too bad. It did blow through...

Can you please keep us updated as to when the alloy version is out please. I would love something for my rail

Hmm I’d disagree about GX, I went through 3 of their derailleur on my last bike before going X01. Which was largely faultless. Given that SX kit is worth two tenths of f all, i’ll run it until it falls to bits. Which may be a week, maybe a year. But actually moving back to 10 or 11 speed...

Ha ha, I haven’t touched it yet thanks. It’s as it came from the shop mines proper peasant spec by the way so SX not NX. I’m more than capable in being able to index and setup bike gearing. I’ve been doing it for some time. The plan was to replace it all as and When it wore out, but a quick...
