So what is the verdict on the SRAM front der.? The impression I am getting isn't as happy happy joy joy as the rear der./shifter products

Any word on product development for if they are refining the front der. to fix any major issues.

thanks

i just bought a 9.0 front off eBay and its much better than the XT it replaced. always had trouble shifting under load and other maladies, including adjusting and so far the sram has been fine. the XT was the last piece of shimano on my bike, now i'm happy.

I would also like to know. My brand new XT fd has been adjusted atleast 5 times in the past month.
I am sick of shimano fds. I have had 4 wear out in the last 3 years. Two lx's and two XTR's. The pivots get so sloppy they rattle all the time, then they just quit working. I can't wait for someone to figure out a better way to shift the front rings that is reliable.
