Get a clutched R/D if you go with either brand, it's well worth it to eliminate chain suck.

Which Shimano would you recommend? I see that the SLX M675 is clutched, that's the one I was planning on getting. One that would be budget oriented, so we stay on topic. hahaha

Sure wish I could have 2 weeks off of work every year.

Yeah, me too. I work for Amazon, we don't get weeks off at a time for holidays. hahaha

I guess really it comes down to if I want to spend the extra money to go with an SRAM setup as opposed to Shimano. Looking at the SRAM options it's going to have to be X7. What Shimano group compares to X7?

I would like to find this out too. I'm currently looking at the Shimano SLX groupset, minus the brakes. I'm probably going to go with Avid BB7 mechicals.


I'm thinking about waiting to see some reviews of the Enduro copy. I don't know about the geometry of it, but the frame itself looks awesome. Does anyone have a link to who is selling these, that isn't ebay?

What type of bottom bracket type does the ip-036 come with? I'm trying to figure out what parts to buy before ordering the frame.

Seeing as this thread is pretty active, I'm going to ask here. How exactly do you buy a frame from xmiplay? I'm wanting to buy the ip-036, but I'm not seeing anyway to do so. Do I just have to skype or email them?

Awesome forum, by the way. I'll be a lot more active once I start my build.  :)
