Hi Kip. Funny but I just put a sun tour xc pro on one bike. It was in pristine condition given the age. It works fine, the action is a little tight compared to my other ones (a deore, a late 90s xt, early 90s xt). It should work fine, I'm using six or seven speed for me.
Funny about the deore xt for sale, didn't realize the demand for those. On Apr 5, 6:49 pm, Kip Otteson <kip.otte...@gmail.com> wrote: > Just curious about your opinions.
