Flowta Posted March 12, 2014 Share Do you wanna have a swop meet? I've got a few things you may need and vice versa It's not a bad idea. The problem is getting the energy to go through the garage and sort it all out Caerus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Smimby Posted March 12, 2014 Share Hate to say it, but it won't work with the 9 speed derailleur unless you have a 10 speed flat bar ROAD shifter. Post the result and PLEASE prove me wrong. I have a bunch of stuff to recycle Why would it not work? The derailleur . Front or Rear will only move as much as the shifter makes it move so there is not reason that I can think off why it should not work. As long as it is XT shifter and XT rear derailleur . 9/10 speed is controlled from the shifter not the derailleur .... TheNewGuy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS, the geometry of the parrallelogram affects how much it moves sideways based on the amount of cable being pulled. Shimano changed this geometry when going to 10 speed MTB, which they have never done before. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerus Posted March 12, 2014 Share Octa 44-32-22 CG So basically a 9 speed crank & rear derailleur mixed with 10 speed shifters, cassette & chain? Mmmm, not sure that will work if what I think will be the set-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasworx Posted March 12, 2014 Share I really need that extra gear. I've been reading through this thread & even though there is an influx of useful information, it all seems like a helluva lot of work for 1 extra gear..... I would imagine if I were going up a big hill on a single speed that there might be a moment where an extra gear could come in handy but you have 27 already.......a little bit of extra time in the saddle might solve this whole debacle?? maybe?? #justsaying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted March 12, 2014 Share Crank will work, derailleur not Now just read something in the long / short/ medium cage derailleur thread that can add weight to this subject Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
