11/6/2022 0 Comments Sr suntour xce, 28/38/48![]() ![]() a 15 year old X-1 shifts a 9speed chain/ring combo perfectly, and weighs a LOT less than anything shimano currently offers (for the money). The front derailleurs especially are still quite good, and hell, irony to the 9 speed chainrings requiring narrower front derailleur cages. I myself still to this day will use older suntour parts like X-1 if I have the option. in the past 14 years I've physically encountered such a beast only ONCE) which meant using heavier drivetrains. Also they went to 11-28 cassettes and thus seriously reduced the low-gearing possible to mountain bikers (since they had 20/30/42 chainrings) compared to shimano with its standard bolt pattern cranks (24/36/46) and no easily found cassette with a larger granny cog than 32T (there was a 13-34 7speed range but it was a darn rare item to see listed in catalogs. ![]() Stuff like introducing 24 speed gearing across their top three groups at a time shimano only offered it with XTR. When XTR came in, shimano finally had something on equal footing with XC-Pro, but then a year later suntour brings in XC-Expert and does stuff with it (and XC-Comp and Pro) to show they're not out of the game yet. ![]() Vrobce SR SUNTOUR Typ trojpevodnk Oznaen XCC-T208-PBIG Poty zub. So you'd get comparisons like XC-Pro is equal to Deore XT (both being the top level groups from respective brands) when really it was better being lighter and better featured, and XC-Comp would line up with Deore DX (both being second from the top) but really it was between XT and DX in terms of quality/performance.

They offer great stiffness and durability and are compatible with bicycles with an 8-speed gearbox with a square bracket axle. Remember at the time (1989-91 range) Suntour only had like 6 offroad groups from top to bottom where shimano had 14 groups for the same range.
