Thanks to a fellow STW'er who let me borrow his SLX-braked bike I now don't want to use my old XT's anymore due to the vast difference in power/stopping/modulation etc.

Wheres the cheapest? Rosebikes is the cheapest so far at 120. I don't need discs.

Think Merlin was knocking them out for £59 each a while back.

Edit just looked £75 each now.

Or bleed your XT's?

My old model saints (same as XT but grey), are just as good as my new type XT.
