If I recall the rollamajig just helped to improve shifting, according to some 🤔 .... this device changes the cable pull between the shifter and the rear derailleur Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted June 22, 2023 Share Done and dusted 😎 Did a 15k 'suburb and servitude' test and works perfectly, did have to use a hanger extender to be able to shift to the 46 though! Will do a longer ride Sunday and then it's just to see how the printed 'mullet adapter' holds up over time, I did print it with PETG Of course now the next possibility .... my other gravel bike has a 10sp shifter but with a 9sp XT derailleur, time to make a similar setup but using a 10 or 11sp CLUTCH derailleur 😃 - just need to find one!

Wannabe Posted June 22, 2023 Share I might have one for you, in exchange of one of those mullet adjusters" of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted June 22, 2023 Share Currently running a Ultegra 6600 Shifter setup with a old SRAM X7 front derailleur and an 9spd Shimano Altus rear derailleur. 11-36 Cassette and some nondescript 2 x Chainring setup of unknown origin. Shifts perfectly on the tar / smooth gravel, but there is a lot of chain slap as soon as it becomes a bit rough underneath. Would love to fit a clutch rear derailleur to mitigate it a bit.

Another solution has been put into my head by the Grumpy one though ... more interesting since it'd mean using a SRAM clutch RD but I'm in for solving both 👍 DM me your number and I'll be in touch anyway!

If you have a clutch derailleur I can have a go at solving it for you no problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that to actuate the dropper? I see you're running 1x...... If you really wanted to get smart, take the rachet out of the left hand shifter and use that to actuate the dropper?

Yeah, that’s what it’s for I believe that’s an option but I think not possible with this shifter, not quite sure tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a sweet build, enjoy! cadenceblur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
