Cheers

I loved my XT shifter, BUT the Saint feels miles better. Well worth it.

Best shifter evarz. As high quality as XTR but with a much nicer feel (IMO of course, some might find it stiff/clunky). As with all the best Shimano shifting, it's a combination of proven Shimano quality, and ripped-off SRAM feel ๐Ÿ˜‰

Never used Zee but Saint is proppa bolt-action like SRAM redesigned by Shimano with more precision and less clunk. Lurvely. More direct than XT but the same kind of Shimano precision
