    That slx crankset is a bargain. Pity I need 170mm.

    Just be aware that the cranks don’t come with the bb, as they are usually sold with it included.

    Those cranks are a kin bargain alright.

    Does anyone know if the indicator windows on the SLX shifters are removable?

    And would anyone be interested in buying the left hand shifter for £12 if I bought the pair?

    It seems to be quite common for 10 speed cranks to not come with a BB.

    SLX brakes ordered. Was tempted by XT but want 2 sets so both bikes have the same brakes and I can add the free stroke with an M4 screw.

    Shifter windows are removable but you will have to buy the base plates seperately if theyre uk spec…mainland eu ones come with them for some reason?!

    The SLX brakes show 950mm for both front and rear hoses, is that right or just a typo?

    Surely that’s not long enough for a rear hose?

    Only need, rear-shifter. Can you confirm it is 10 speed, how old and your asking price posted please?

    Tried emailing you but can’t make out your addy. Drop me an email pls.

    Cheers

    Edit: ignore the 10speed question… 😳

    Great PSA op, been waiting for an offer on some brakes, thank you 🙂

    Yesterday I was thinking ‘I’d really like 2×10 on my Solaris same as my FS’ and now I have 🙂 Price difference between XT and SLX is way bigger than the difference in performance.

    Full new drivetrain (mix of SLX and XT) plus chainrings for £80.

    Brilliant PSA and my new build is going to run much smoother now.

    Quick question, will the SLX brakes work with Hayes Nine discs? Our should I get the Shimano discs too?

    If I was to buy a pair of those XT brakes, would I need any extra fittings to trim the hoses? Do they come with extra inserts?

    That’s cheaper prices than we (as a small rural bike shop) can buy the stuff from our suppliers.
