Proper nice bits on that! :) Have a love-hate relationship with our Alfine 8, but seeing the XT groupo on that makes me crave the performance of proper derailleur gears! Brakes must be awesome too...
Good luck getting your daughter onboard, I'm sure she'll come around and soon you will all be bombing around the place with big grins, dog included.

XT is so impressive i have to say, the ease of installation and quality shifting is proper reassuring.
I am yet to get close to needing 32*46T though and i doubt the bike would be very stable at that on a slow climb with two passengers. Larger chain ring in order i think.
Brakes are mint, I can't comment on how good XT or Saint would have been but felt like I should go all out with 3 of us and a worried mum riding behind.

Bullitt build complete. Dog just about coming around to enjoying himself in it, daughter a work in progress.
