It doesnt matter but my PG990 is showing wear after 200ish miles, Not what i was hoping for TBH

My jockey wheels have also disintegrated today on the X9 too 🙄

Isn't a PG990 way more expensive? And heavier? (could be wrong)
I remember buying the XT instead for some reason though

the PG990 is RED and therefore FASTER

If you can't decide, then get the one that saves you the most cash.

I think you'll find the XT has an alloy spider.

I am a XT/XTR user but thought id ask if there was any SRAM users that could give benefits like wear rate and shifting but ..............obviously not

running XTR at present but the stooooopid high price increases make it daft money and unaffordable just for a second wheel set

XT it is then... lighter and cheaper
