Hi! Can any folk offer some clarification?
I run six and seven speed road bikes using shimano derailleurs and normal width chains ie. not compatible with 8 or 9-speed...
What about the pulley wheels - i am using the narrow version of wheel and i think it is meant for 7 or 8 speed. Would i be best, for smooth transmission , to canibalize an older type of 6 speed derailleeur and move the pulley wheels onto the changer? These older type of pulley wheel are about 4mm wider but the distance between the teeth of the wheel appear to be v. similar.
phewwww!
cheers, for any help, tim parker.
