Agree with ther derailler but the frame is class, top of the range for a 2006 plus I was sponsored by GT and had them when not so feel my loyalties are to them plus never had a bad frame from them yet and that is since the 80's. I guess it is personal pref?
what's wrong with the rear mech?! Is it because it is no SRAM, or it is not XTR or Saint? It took me four years in 3 of my bikes to finally destroy it...
