		<description>I just like being out in the woods away from the city huckin&#039; drops with my buds. I&#039;ve always ridden bikes and now its all about how far from society we can get. So I guess I ride for that bushwacker feeling.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-327&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>I am loving my Saint stuff right now with one exception, the crank&#039;s thicker chainring tabs that prevent the use of an aftermarket bashring style chainguide.  You have to use the Saint bashring to prevent the chain from getting caught in between the chainring and bashring.

The rear derailleur is great as are the shifters.  The chain has been solid and the SLX cassette has been providing consistent, crisp shifting.

I&#039;ve used SRAM X.9 and X.0 mechs and shifters and they also have no mechanical faults in my opinion.  I do prefer the Saint rear mech&#039;s much lower profile over the standard profile of the SRAM though.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-323&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>Some of both.

Shimano cranks and front der

Sram shifters, rear der, and chain

The biggest reason is shimano&#039;s stupid indicators that prevent you from running your brakes on the inside of your shifters.  I know the saint and maybe the new xt&#039;s have changed it but now im used to sram.  Besides that it really doesn&#039;t matter.  If it works ill ride it.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-322&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>Salt lake City Utah has some pretty killer stuff.  Not a whole lot in terms of ladders or stunts like that but definately lots of jumps and DH trails.  We have Deer Valley and sundance resorts within 30 min drive.  Tons of shuttle runs with lots of elevation.  We have a MTB specific jump area with easily over 100 jumps spread out all over the mountain side that is literally 5 minutes from downtown SLC.  We also have one of the sweetest trails ever called bobsled.  Also we have Moab within 3.5 hours.  Virgin (red bull rampage) and grafton within 4 hours.  St george within 4.  Bootleg canyon about 6 hours away.  Jackson hole wyoming about 5 hours away and colorado, california, and whistler (long day) within a days drive.  Pretty sweet stuff.  Also an incredible amount of XC around park city area.&lt;p class=&quot;top-comments&quot;&gt;Current score: &lt;span class=&quot;top-comments-karma&quot; id=&quot;karma-309&quot;&gt;0&lt;/span&gt; &lt;small&gt;(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
