i really like the design of this derailleur but i have a 9 Speed Mountain Bike Cassette do you guys think it will work?

I'm not sure but I have a feeling that it won't work. I don't believe that it will give you the range from side to side in order to reach all of the gears. There are 9 speed derailleurs for sale on Amazon. I recently ordered a 5 speed Shimano derailleur. It works great. I mounted it on a vintage 1970's era bike so I did have to drill a couple of holes in the frame to mount it. Hope this was helpful.

It should as it is an 8 speed derailleur. Check with your local buike shop to be 100% sure

NO! No, it will not work. The SRAM shifters only work with SRAM rear derailieurs, because the ratio is 1:1 vs Shimano 2:1. The front derailieurs for both systems are interchangeable as they use the same ratio.

No problem regarding the 8 speed cassette. The front derailleur doesn't know or care how many sprockets are on the rear.You may have a slight problem regarding the chain. An eight speed chain is slightly wider than a nine. Adjustment will be more critical to avoid rubbing.

This will work, but you need to check on the shimano web site to see if your rear deraileur will work with the 28 tooth cog. Mine made noise because the idler gears were making contact with the 28t cog. I ended up buying a new mid length cage rear deraileur. They are pretty cheap online.

I believe the photo is errant. What I received was a 7 speed. You definitely don't want to substitute an 8 speed on a 7 speed application. You'd have too much slack in the shifter cable (in position 8 on shifter) even if you adjusted the deraileur stops to avoid the chain falling off, and an annoying dead spot gathering up that slack when shifting back into the lower gears.

yes, assuming you have 7 speed rear deraillure shifter and chain. The width of the cassette is usually the same, it's the width of the gears plus spacing between the gears that are different.

Any Shimano / microshift / sunnrace rear derailleur will be controlled by this shifter. If derailleur description says 7/8 or even 9 speed it will work. The "speed of derailleur" is really its range of movement, ie how many cogs wide it can span. 6/7/8 all use the same chain because spacing is the same. When I had mounted these A050 thumb / paddle shifters on my sons 8 spd roadbike, we could only use 7 cogs, so we adjusted High or Low limit screw to exclude top or bottom cog. If u have flatbar these are a great choice. If u have road style drop handlebars, consider the related Shimano A070 Brake Lever Shifters.

sure, the shifter will work the same with any size chainring, it is the derailleur that is specific to chainring size

it's a front derailleur... not a rear. that said, I bought this and use it with my 1997 Specialized stumpjumper which has an 8 speed cassette. works great.

Since the bar end shifters are intended for 8-speed rear cassette you will need to find a compatable derailleur. I checked online and most everything is 9-10-or11 speed now. In the past I have had both Dura-Ace and Ultegra derailleurs by Shimano that worked great but they were 8-speed systems ant that was about 15 years ago. Not sure if the 10 or 9 speed will work or not. I would check with a good bike mechanic before buying just to be safe. I bought and older Specialized Warrior Sport that happened to have an 8-speed rear cassette (not sure of the brand of the derailleur) and I installed the bar end shifters and they work great and have made riding fun again.

yes it will work. Adjusting for perfect shifting was a little challenging. It is best to use Sram rear derailer and cassette with Sram shifters and vs.

If you have Tourney shifters with a 7 speeds rear derailer and 3 speed front derailer you should be fine. The most difficult part is fine tuning the cable length nuts to get the shifters just right.

i would only guess; but it should work since you have a 10-speed cassette. i got this chain to replace a 6 year old Ultegra chain. I would not worry about lack of fitting.

As long as you have a Shimano deraileur it should work. Make sure you get the 7-speed set for a 21-speed (3 front/7 rear)

It will work, you may need to change to a Shimano shifter and crank set to complete the package. Otherwise you will have issues when shifting up and down.

if you have a 7 speed rear cand a 3 speed at the pedal this will work. I don't know anything and it was easy. Down load the instructions on adjusting the gears. It's like canything else,3 hours the vfirst time and 1 hour evetry time after that. it's easy and fun. save bucks too..good luck.619-540-7766/paul
