I pulled the trigger on the XX1 AXS while I am still sorting out the XDdriver. My LBS wasn’t sure which flavor of the few that are listed on the Trek site was the right move so they are reaching out to find out what to go with.
I’m thinking it might be this one. Just want to make sure that...
Which XD driver do we use to swap freehubs on stock Rail 5 Wheels? There are a few on Trek site and i cant figure out which one i need so that i can upgrade my cassette along with a bunch of other bits.
So i've decided!
The xx1 axs kit for the derailleur and controller, along with xx1 cassette and chain. Opinions on rainbow/oilstain or gold? I think they will both look killer against the olive drab green of the rail 5.
Yes some of my nerdy and flashy sides are driving atm, however knowing...
overall i'd say a balance of the two. I'm hoping any of the parts i'm looking at will take more of a beating than whats on the bike stock and should aid in fun factor. I do however agree, between the high end choices the cable flavors probably would run longer and be more field serviceable. The...
Going tubeless Is on the menu for sure, considering running an insert like a cushcore as well, thinking that could be beneficial while I’m losing weight to add some durability to the the rim and ride. My thinking correct?
Right on! Efficient way of doing things and getting your moneys worth out of each piece or gear, popular method.
I'm in the mod to mod/test different/gear acquisition syndrome/tinker camp. Its becomes part of the hobby, but never the hobby. I see that line and know people that cross it and I...
I had a minor bail/fall yesterday the SX survived it but it just doesn't feel like it can take much more, and I really didn't lay it down that hard.
When I really think about it, the gears themselves I have little to remark on. That being said I'm still pretty set on the XX1 AXS set up...
So I think I am settled on crying once here and going with an XX1 AXS Kit, GX Cassette and Chain. I need help finding the XD driver that i would use with my stock wheels. Can any of you hook me up with a link to what i would need here to make it all work ? I am still researching brakes. I want...
Thank you!! This helps a lot. I think of all the things mentioned I’m probably mostly ok with the dropper at the moment. Am I able to just swap out the lever there for something less plastic feeling ?
For the group set I’ve seen that the general consensus is that the GX to XX1 jump is somewhat...
Still new so hopefully don’t get flamed but i came across a good price on an xx1 drive train set up. Will this work on my Rail 5 before i even explore picking it up?
Good morning all!
I joined the EMTB community a few months back with the purchase of my Rail 5. I relocated from FL to NH and my town has a great trail network for getting around and connects all my relatives homes easily. With that in mind we ditched one of the cars, and upgraded the bikes to...
