About to buy 89 wicked, need some help.
Hey guys. So I found a 16.5" wicked that I'm just about to pull the trigger on. Few questions:
I would want to swap the 7 speed Deore XT, to 8 speed XTR... will the Deore XT hubs take an 8-speed cog or am I going to have to lace up some other hubs?
Also, is the 7 speed XT shifters and derailleurs worth anything in resale value?
One more thing, the decals are all chipped away... the decals are NOT clear coated over, correct?
If anyone has any other advice or things to look for on this bike, I would really appreciate it.
Many thanks!
