Bill's Components
Bill installed new components on his Trek Pilot: a Shimano Deore XT 9 speed (11-34) cassette and a Shimano SLX super long cage rear derailleur. Normally fitted to mountain bikes, but Bill has enhanced his road bikes for steep grade climbing capabilities - at least that's his theory.
