Unless you're riding an XL frame you'll almost certainly have to shorten the hoses

the m615 deore come in around the £100 mark,

it seems shimano prices have really gone up in the last 6 months, SLX m675 were to be had for the £80 mark (£108 on merlin per bobs link above), m615 deore £70, i got some m8000 XT for £120 now £150 everywhere.
i was pricing up the xt m8000 drivetrain mid summer, looked the other day and that all seems to have got an extra £15-20 per part. :0(

on CRB the SLX m7000 brakes are a tenner more than the XT m8000s ??
Brexit has caught up with us.

£93 on CRC for the slx m675 using the clearance code , a bit late now, but you.ll love the m8000 look really nice and function well, once you get the bleed right
