I'm a fan of [superagent] for AJAX. The React lib is big, but its declarative nature has lead to fewer and easier-to-diagnose bugs for us, which is ultimately a win for the end user. I've been using it exclusively on new projects for months now and I'm a Backbone.js core contributor ;)
I've been toying with mercury, which is similar to React/flux, and had the same dilemma as the parent. It seems a bit strange to use a really light weight library like mercury and then throw jQuery into the mix.
I also checked out superagent and it seems to have a good amount of dependencies. I was thinking of simply wrapping XMLHttpRequest with the promise lib of my choice.
