pauloc Posted October 10, 2011 Share Sounds like you need to adjust the limit screws to allow for the proper range of motion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_w_65 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Sounds like you need to adjust the limit screws to allow for the proper range of motion. No, there is some other cause/problem. The limit screw did not adjust itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A weak spring? Pull it off, fiddle around, see if anything's jamming. If not, then yes, it's probably the cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grebel Posted October 10, 2011 Share help me out here.. my gears on the rear cassette are not changing down to last last 2 small cogs? ive done nothing?XT front and rear derailer Adjust the cable tension before you strip anything. It is very sensitive (i.e. a quarter turn can be the difference between slick changes and jumping/hunting gears). How old is the setup?
