SRAM X.5
X-9 Rear Derailleur
The SRAM X-9 rear derailleur and SRAM X-9 shifters are a great combo. They use a 1:1 shifting ratio and a powerful return spring that makes for really easy installation, adjustment, and maintenance.
We used this system including the SRAM X-9 trigger shifters, SRAM X-9 rear derailleur, SRAM Hollow Point Chain and a SRAM rear cassette to replace a Shimano XTR drivetrain on a bike that had had chronic shifting problems. It has shifted flawlessly ever since.
I was pleased to discover that the SRAM X-9 rear derailleur doesn't clank against the chainstays on downhills like my Shimano derailleurs sometimes do. This is a really a nice feature, especially on FSR rear suspension frames. It makes for a much quieter ride.
Another positive of the X-9 rear derailleur is its direct cable housing feed that doesn't catch on branches as much as non-direct cable routed designs.
The SRAM X-9 rear derailleur and SRAM X-9 shifters make for an excellent upgrade. You will, however, have to get both the shifters and the derailleur if you don't already have a 1:1 shift ratio system such as another SRAM product.

Specialized Armadillo Crossroads EX 26 x 1.95 Tire
Review:
I bought these tires because they have a good tread design for off-road bike touring, and the Armadillo flat protection is desirable on long and remote bike tours. The solid center ridge results in very low rolling resistance while using these tires on pavement. The nicely spaced knobs along the side of the tire gives good cornering traction while turning on off-road trails. The tread design is good for off-road bike touring with minimal rolling resistance when used on pavement.
After using one of these tires to bike tour for three months across Tibet, this same tire was used by Michelle for two months of bike touring on the Great Divide, and the tire still has plenty of traction remaining for another trip. Unlike the Hemisphere tire, this tire does not have any problems with the adhesion of the rubber to the casing (see review of Specialized Armadillo Hemisphere bicycle tire). I cannot recall getting any flat tires while using this tire.
Specialized has replaced the Crossroads EX bicycle tire with a Crossroads tire. The tread design on the Crossroads is different than the Crossroads EX and we are currently testing the Crossroads tire to see if it matches up with the proven Crossroads EX.
We’re also testing the Continental Travel Contact tire, as Continental is known for quality, long-lasting tires and the tread looks to be useful for the variety of touring we’ll be doing. Michelle has used Continental tires with good results for commuting as well, so return to the Reviews section in the future to read our results.
