Default New Crank Forward - First Impressions

The only real dislike I have for the bike is the grupo - specifically
the SRAM X.5 gears. My conventional bikes had Record 10 and Shimano XT.
This grupo doens't shift well and will even shift itself. The twist grip
shifters seem attached to elastic cables. The entire shifting experience
is unsure and unsatisfactory. If I grow to use this bike a lot, I'm
upgrading to XT's.


Different cable pull. You'll want to get x.5 trigger shifters. @$50.
