Bill and all, I've been really pleased with the M30 Crankset. Definitely a great option for your MTB.
After some riding. The gear range is more than appropriate for the riding that I do. I think the Eagle GX is a great budget option for people, but there are fewer hub options because of the XD driver body. The gear range is in no way limiting. I do acknowledge that the Eagle XX1 kit is expensive, if I was on a tighter budget, I would go with the Eagle GX kit. Durability we will see about. I did run a 11-speed XX1 kit on my MTB and had no issues on the durability front. As for wheel dish. The has the exact same dish as any modern cassette body hub. OLD on the rear hub is 135mm. The way the cassette is designed, the last couple cogs are dished in over the drive-side hub flange. As always, gearing is a personal preference in some regards. This setup works really well for me and my needs/desires. Simplified on the gear selection, choices are 1-12. Less parts to deal with, and a cleaner setup in my eyes.
