The thing that I would like to see is the departure from "smooth gear ratio ramping" tenderness in that rather brutal sport. What's the problem with running 6 speeds with 11-42 cassette at 10/11sp cog spacing? Eagle is insane, it is decomposing everything that single speed drivetrains have established, that is it got people to muscle up. People running 30t front and 50t rear, honestly change sport if 10-42 XX1 was too hard for you. Also if you need better shifting, so you consider going Di2, honestly get a freaking life, what kind of mountain biking you are doing to be able to experience difference in shifting quality between mechanical XT and Di2?
