For those of us who think the Shimano XT m770 (ie 104/64 bcd and a 24mm spindle in a strong and lightweight package) was the high water mark for cranksets, I have good news. I present to you the Shimano XT FC-T8000 https://www.bike-components.de/de/S...KSR-p50271/schwarz-175-0-mm-26-36-48-o201517/.

As a bonus it comes with the perfect chainrings for a 27.5 2x10 setup.

OneUp is selling off their dropper posts pretty cheap at the moment to make way for their V2 models. 169usd with free shipping

I crunched the numbers & can’t make that special in my book almost local price, without local warranty.

And with all the known V1 problems to boot........

DT Swiss XM 1501 wheels from Merlin at a decent price. 27.5, boost 6 bolt rotors. 25mm internal and decent enough for most.

I've been running a v1 for quite a while now and no issues. I'm no lightweight either! Some slicko under the collar and a clean every now and then and it's been trouble free.

Not to say that others haven't had problems though....

210mm V2 would be nice though.... Anyone want to buy a 170mm V1??

Same here. I've got an alert set to get hold of at least one at 210mm. 170mm still isn't enough.

170 is too big for me.

I needed a 150mm 30.9 post and no one local had one in stock. It's the only 150 dropper that will work with my wife's inseam on her bike. Was going to go a Bike Yoke 125mm but it was double the price before I even added a remote. Will see how this goes.

You sound like my wife...

@wkkie @The Reverend I'm keen on a 170 one up in 30.9 when the time is right.

Agree... I received a warranty replacement 170 the day before the 210 announcement....so upsetting.

That said... I bought at Xmas from UK site (on sale)... I know people want local warranty but OneUp have been excellent. They sent out the new post before I had to return the current. Once I had both they asked me to send back the warranty one and refunded me the postage costs. So you're never without post.

Mine's a 31.6mm on my Banshee, I'll move that to the Remedy which is on 150mm and then run the 210mm on the Banshee unless I feel it's worth doing them both at 210mm as they'd both fit.
