3/8/2023 1:28pm Thanks for the keyword! Found a shop listing for the group. https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/en/sram-xxsl-t-type-eagle-transmission… $2425 for a power meter kit, can't verify it much though. EDIT This site has a BB with new part numbers. Looking at the list XX and XXSL are different products both using the "T-Type" Chain. https://www.sykkel.no/komponenter/sram-kranlager-spacer-kit-dub-mtb-wid… 2ND EDIT XXSL T-Type Chain https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/en/sram-xxsl-t-type-eagle-hollowpin-t-… $132.99 (maybe) I also found...

In regards to his deal with Diamond Back, I think it's pretty clear...

12/6/2022 1:18pm I have it on good authority that SRAM is battling efficiency issues with their 10t cog in the context of world cup/tour level riders. From what I know, most pros are actively avoiding its use outside of soft pedaling, as there is about a 50-60 watt loss when over 1000 watts of power are applied. It's not a problem for...

12/3/2022 12:32pm I figured I would chime in on this as I have just built a new aluminum fuel and am very familiar with its previous versions. From my view, it's definitely a different bike than it used to be. It's much more in line with previous remedy customers than the guy with a fuel from 2017 who wants to upgrade. It...
