Haven’t heard anything about shifters but have certainly heard many rumblings about derailleurs.
The Deore seems well-lubed inside (different Shimano owned factories I know) but will obviously cover it in the full review if it doesn’t meet expectations. Out of the box it seems as nicely put together as my 11spd XT.
What level cranks re. coming with a tool? These Deores definitely did not include a tool.
In terms of backpedaling, what chainline are you running? 55? Certainly something I’ll be watching for as things wear.
