good work, deore shifters aren't that durable, if you are going to give it a workout, keep your eye out for XT variants that have more robust construction and likely to stay the course. the solid purple colour reminds me of the now defunct Rowntrees tooty frooties ;-)

I will be on the lookout for a set of XT, but these ones are like new and I have a spare set if needed.
I did prefer the splatter paint jobs of the previous year, but this just came up at the right time.
