Well the the local cube dealer did replace my derailleur after they putted on new trigger shifters. I did take the old trigger shifters apart and messed them up.
After I got the new trigger shifters the bike fell down and the derailleur did not work and I got the bake to the cube dealer and they tried to fix the gears then they where skipping and not working properly.
I had been riding the bike all over winter with lot of salt, snow and ice on the roads so the derailleur kind of was like wornout.
I went with bike again to the Cube dealer to see if they would do something about it, they changed the derailleur to acera shadow. I tired to see if the gears worked properly but they didn't so I tried to fine tune them but I messed it all up so they did not work at all.
I took the bike to another store that I booked time for originally another bike that I own but decided to let them try to fix the problem and they fixed by putting altus on the bike and chancing he cable and the housing.
