I just wore out an 8 speed chain after ~1200 miles, easy and mostly dry miles.
Phuk dat.
Cross bikes with derailleur gears and hyrdro brakes take maintaining, I would rather deal with the occasional hub dip than regular cleaning/oiling etc
Also mud does not equal salt.
And den, GT won't take guards and decent size tyres, want to keep CDF nice, new bike makes most sense.
Ordered today.
