The Eagle GX groups have already inadvertently broken cover in Santa Cruz spec sheets, so that's a thing. It should be around the same money as a Shimano XT setup with e13 cassette (Still wants an XD driver), for basically the same range.
I think budget winner here (particularly for Clydes on a budget running DT-350 hubs) is actually taking a stock XT cassette and just adding the OneUp 10t kit for another $96\. Seems pricy, but north of 100kg, being able to come down 2 teeth on the chairing is really nice, and opting for a 46t granny setup but still getting a 3.0:1 tall gear ratio is great on a do-everything wagon wheeler.
