My hanger needs straightening and the RD was playing up yesterday until I cleaned it but the XT? I have is still working. I do like the idea of keeping the RD a cheap part and just replacing the lever with electronic gubbins but then why not go the whole hog if my RDs aren't being ripped to shreds every 15mins...
The Archer is about the same price as the SRAM but would let me use Shimano RDs.
