Really great advice here once again. You don’t really know how things stack up in the real world until you’ve experienced a demo or owned a piece of gear over the long haul. As you can imagine, these two options are very intriguing but that sounds like a flat-out bad experience with the TRS Race. Not being able to ride because components are down is a real drag, especially in the Northeast where you only have 8 months of good weather to do it. (As I experienced this season when my dropper bit the dust) Seems like everyone loves the GX Eagle!
