XTR vs SLX is not really about weight, it is about the extra buttery
smoothness of the shifts, the additional power and modulation of the brakes
and most importantly the three year over one year warranty that comes with
XTR. Also Shimano are so bent on proving that XTR is the best that if it ever
does fail (which is very rare to be honest) even from normal fair wear and
tear, they just replace it at no additional cost and with no argument.
