Updating a bike , new bike has a better alround spec ,
Only point of contention being the brakes , older bike has Deore XT ( one year old ) new bike has sram guide RS ( I’ve never owned a bike with them )
My bike mechanic said ( not from the shop selling the bike ) Swap them over , keep the XT s sell the old bike with the sram , he isn’t a fan of sram brakes ,
my last 4 bikes have all had XT , and I’ve been happy with them , never owned guides , so don’t have an opinion on them , but just curious if this sounds like good advice?
Cheers
