What are your thoughts on Core 3 v Shred?
SLX and EP8 v XT and E8000
In Oz Shred is currently avail but is $1000 more than Core 3 which is due in the coming weeks
I'd go shred. It's not just XT, but the other components are better too, wheels, bars, stem, shock etc.
I really don't think you'll notice a difference between E8000 and EP8
