2/24/2026 12:11pm The XX chain or any of the transmission chains are insanely hard wearing and very strong overall. I have 3 seasons on one that came with the XX groupset and still can't measure any hint of wear using the latest gauges. Probably close to 160,000+M in vert and thousands of kilometers on the MTB. I think they really meant it...

Can't say I've any time on Mavens, period (Wisco Pride n all) but this highlights why I never buy 1st gen anything.
