Hi All,

Just picked up a Giant Granite courtesy of ebay for £36, pics to follow.

Anybody got any insight as to where these sit in the Giant range ? Chromoly 4130 double butted (lightweight?). It's Alivio equipped throughout, is that better/worse than Acera, I lose track of the Shimano range. I know Altus=bad, Deore=Good, and Acera/Alivio somewhere in the middle.

Ta very much.
 
IIRC Alivio comes below Deore, Altus below that.

Older gen Altus mechs we're pretty smart, alloy knuckled slant parallelogram jobs, but from c.97 onwards they were redesigned and were orrible.
