Post it up on Mojo. Those guys can't stand shimano for some reason. If you find someone that wants to swap some XTR 9 speed stuff for my nearly new X9 shifters and X0 rear, let me know.

Hey, I've been looking for one of those, will you accept paypal and ship it out next day for me. I'm so excited to put it on my AS-X... Oh wait, nevermind.

FYI for any of you considering the new GenX front Derailleur from Sram. Don't be stupid like me and buy one for your AS-X. It will NOT fit. :nuts: The pivot mount is in the way. Shimano's clamp is much lower and will work.
More specifically you're picturing a top-swing Shimano derailleur that works. I'm sure the bottom-swing Shimano wouldn't work if that Sram doesn't.

I thought this thread was going to be about Wynona Ryder being unhappy with her Yeti...

SRAM will be realeasing a "top swing" style derailleur in January I believe

Then no more Shimano :nopity: NICE...I actually use both......shhhhhhhh
