I used on my Specialized Stump Jumper with 36t ring I purchased at the same time as this derailleur due to wear to both and it works great. 44t would be to big.

Howdy... all rear derailleurs need a hanger. You can buy bolt-on hangers if you don't already have one on your frame. Inespensive, but likly to break if you do a lot of rough riding. I'm not sure but I think this one will only accomodate up to about a 37 tooth chain ring. Check on Shimano's site though. My own rear cassettes only fo up to either 37 or 39 teeth.

I used the stock hanger that came on my Diamond Back Over Drive. It will work with a 44 just fine. I run an 12-36 rear cassette

if your bike frame have it no issues, if not you must use a derailleur adapter. It works fine with a 44t chainring.

Yes you need a rear derailleur hanger. Yes this will work with a 44T front crank chainring, the shimano crank set I paired this with was a 22, 32 44T, however I ended up taking the 44 off and replacing it with a bash guard. The largest you can go on the cassette is 36T.

I didn't need a hanger for mine. And my largest chainring is 44. Great product!!! I love it. Put around 300 miles on it in 3 months and it's still great!!!

I am not positive, but if you have a matching chainring set (examine sugino attachment confirguration) you should be fine. You shouldn't need to increase your chain length because it sounds like the largest rings are the same size, and the position of the chain and derailleur should stay the same.

I recomend to buy Shimano derailleur pulley. Sram is similar and may be they work but is not for sure.

If you manage to pull it off, I don't recommend it. There is nothing wrong with a long rear deraileur. A good XT or XTR, if not fallen on will last forever.

11-36, 12-36 gearing is typically for mountain or cross bikes. If this is going on a road bike, most likely your derailleur is too short and will not work with the the larger gears. Most road cassettes only go up to 28t (and that is probably the max a "short-cage" derailleur can take). If you want easier gearing, go with 12-28t, compact chainrings in the front, or get a med-cage derailleur to handle the 12-36.

This is a 10 speed derailleur and will only work with that kind of setup. In order to use it you will have to update your shifters, cassette and even your front derailleur.

There are two versions, as shown is works with any chainring bolts because the threaded side of the set is part of the chain ring. Last years version you needed the Origin 8 single chain ring version, they are shorter and not made to hold 2 chain rings. These chain rings have tall teeth and wide narrow teeth, they are made to convert your bike to 1 by 9, 10 or 11. These are not made to work with a front derailleur.

I really think it depends on your chainstay clearance, chainring and crank arms. What I did to figure that out was to use websites like this one: http://sheldonbrown.com/chainline.html to figure out what length bottom bracket best worked for my bike. If you are running a triple, you should be at 45 (I'm assuming you are because you specifically asked about a chainline of 45), but a double should be 43.5mm...and on and on depending on your bike and gearing. You can also adjust the spacers on the back axle as well, but this shouldn't be necessary if you know that your rear (sprocket end) is at 45mm, which is what you are trying to achieve (explained here: http://www.velodromeshop.net/index.php?p=page&page_id=chainline). Sorry, not an easy yes or no answer. Just check those sites out and do the measurements and you should be ok. Hope I helped...good luck!

There is no standard chain length. It depends upon several factors, including chainstay length, derailleur length/size, large chainring size and the size of the largest rear cog/gear. You'll need a chain breaker tool to remove any extra chain links, and to put the chain back together correctly. Be sure to check the re-connected chain links for free movement and slightly loosen the reconnected link if it's too tight (or it will cause problems - which will become apparent).

Yes. The mount on the derailer itself is 35.0mm. Shims are included for 28.6mm and 31.8mm frames.

Unfortunately they don't put barrel adjusters on deraileurs anymore. SRAM started it and Shimano followed. You need an inline adjuster now...

Sorry, no hanger comes with the Derailleur. There are many different types of hangers available.You need to purchase the correct hanger for your bike.

if you read in the description this derailleur will handle a maximum 34 tooth cog,yes it will work!!

It sounds like you might have a medium cage rear derailleur. I have a medium cage Ultegra on another bike. I think a maximum size of 30T for the rear cassette is possible with this length of rear derailleur. You'd need a "long" rear derailleur to use anything beyond 30T. (On a second bike, I have a SRAM setup with a SRAM long cage derailleur and it works great.)

your current derailer should work, you may have to move it up a bit on the frame, but should be no problems

No. Replaceable hangers are usually available for your frame through bike shops or online retailers ( derailleurhanger.com) be sure you have the hanger aligned before reinstalling your derailed.

I'm using my 12-30 with an Ultegra short cage, and it works just fine, this despite the fact that when I originally set it up the opinions expressed at the time said it would not work. I believe even Shimano had a company opinion that it was not appropriate to run that combo. That said, you are still at the mercy of "try it and see if it works." If it were me, I'd take the chance, but you have to make the final call. As in my previous answers about this set-up, I'd remind you to not give up if it seems it won't work initially. Chain length is critical in being able to keep the idler pulley from contacting the 30 tooth cog, and I think I may have messed with the stop screw as well. I wish you the best of luck!
