I am looking to upgrade the LX shifters on my elite, they really feel like the weakest point of the component group. Has anyone upgraded to XT or XTR and with what kind of success?
I swapped out the SRAM X.9 RD and X.7 Shifters for new Shimano XT shifters and shadow RD when I bought my 07 SJ Comp. The shifting is crisp and has been flawless for over 6 months of riding-I would recommend the new XT shifter pods as well and use the extra cash for other components that wear-out like a wheel set or better disc brakes.
