Hey guys. New to forum here so I'd like to start by saying I appreciate the help
I've been looking at websites and such trying to find new parts for my bike's drivetrain, and had some questions about combinations that I'm looking at.
I'm considering buying a Shimano Saint RD, with probably an XT cassette. However up front I want to run an XT M770, due to the fact that I want three rings for trails and what not, which I suppose will require an XT FD as well. For shifters I was considering saints, but then realized that the LH saint would only have 2 speeds, so I guess I would need to throw an XT on that side as well? Would a set-up like this actually work, or am I trying something weird here?
I will admit I'm new at the after-market part of biking, so any help, tips, or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for your time!
