                                                               XT deore 10 S groupset.  

After studying a lot of write ups and searching on line shops I found this much about the Mosso bike:

    1.  The XT group set alone would cost a midrange price MTB  (five numbers)

    2.   The disc is ice tech:

          1.  3 layers of metal for higher heat dissipation

          2.  Floating disc; (for lesser thermal conduction from the  metal contacting the pads and the 

               hub body)

         3.   Patented center lock technology by Shimano for sure fit, and easy removal (with a cog removal

               tool -  You have to tap out the rotor when removing gently with a tool)

         4.  The JO2 break pad is finned again for heat dissipation.  

   3.  Uses 7005 alum technology;    

   4.  The  WS is also an XT;   low weight

                                                      Full hollow chain (lighter?)

Since it is a lockdown, ECQ I cant go to office, or I dont go to office, nor go out to bike because it is scary.  People get sick right and left.   

These are the things I have done for the  bike today:

1.  Replaced the ceramic bearing back to the original, ,JO2 brake pads with fins, and with resins.  The ceramic facing of the replacement, (only P250.00  damaged the ice tech disc facing.  I had to sandpaper it to remove the deep gouges.   The local store sold the same for only P550.00.  The e commerce priced this at P525.00 without the delivery charge yet. 

2. Switched the discs front and back.  Placed the damaged disc to front, and the OK disc to the rear.

My plans:

1.  Replace the cleats pedal with a lightweight titanium flat pedal, with carbon shaft.

2.  Replace the current chain with lightweight hollow. VG chain   VG chain, 10 speed hollow

I hope thats the end of the upgrade.

3.  Invest in a 180 mm front brake (from 160 mm)
