Hi all,
I'm interested in upgrading my entire drivetrain to the new XTR 2x10. I'm on an originial Mojo Carbon. Yes, I know it's a 'classic' now! Anyone have experience yet and if so, what should I look out for?

Thanks!

Drops.
I suggest a chain guide, I am sram 2x atm. The drops have got me down, so I am going add to the xtr shadow plus, xtr shifter and a chain guide which I hope will cure my blues. Granted this is on a s-works hack, where my chainline is a bit tighter.

I had the lopes chain guide when 1x and just liked passing everyone who dropped in the choppy stuff.

The worst is the pseudo chain suck where the rear der bounces while sus is under load, then chain gets caught in a suck position. If you are dropping the coin, the theory behind the rd m985 is at least worth thinking about, or wait til next week when i have some feedback on it.
