I had the opportunity to spend some time on the ALL-NEW Shimano-MTB #SLX group last week. Bang for buck there’s nothing out there that comes close. A LOT of the new technology transferred over with more affordable materials and surface treatments being the major difference for the WORKHORSE groupset. Brakes are of very similar feel in regards to power and control, now with a four piston option; and the drivetrain/ shifting gets the updated range of 10-51 #12spd w/ Hyperglide+ (eg. FAST/ SMOOTH shift’s under load YO 🤘). I think the best feature is it’s all interchangeable between XTR/XT/SLX 12spd groups, so you can pick and choose between ‘em if you’re trying to save some dough 🤙😉 || VC: @disspencer X Anthill Films
