Now after owning the new transmission; I am underwhelmed. I own EMTBs with both SRAM electronic systems and one with XTR. I would take the XXO electric system first with the new shifter module the the XTR system ( the simplicity is worth something) then last the new transmission. I never...
I own both and I would not spend retail for the new stuff. At first I liked it but after two months the shifting needs adjustment. It also shifts slow compared to the original.
I have about 400 miles on my Smart system and have no issues yet. I do try to shift smart but by no means baby the drive train. I love the EMTB mode as well. Your bike has lots more rear travel but not sure that matters. I will keep an eye on it though. Good luck
