is it still xtr?There have been more than enough discussions on SRAM and Sh!tmano over
the past few months for you to make a decision. No need to rehash it.
Just google the group on those two items.Oh and SRAM rules!

I suspect the OP was asking this from ignorance. Within the Shimano
mountain biking components, yes, XTR is the "highest" level. But as
RAL pointed out, there are other brands. Well, one other brand,
anyway.--

I don't think he's talking about the eccentric hub which is what I think
you are picturing. They have ENO hubs for horizontal dropouts, ENO
freewheels, and cranks. I think my next SS freewheel will be an ENO. And
those cranks look sweet too!Matt

pretty durable and does look good as well. Function and style is a
rarity.JD
