I know I have a long cage based on pictures I have seen: http://www.jensonusa.com/help_desk/t...derailleur.asp

Thanks for all the input.
Rapid rise will say it on the derailleur. If you disconnect the cable the derailleur should automagically align itself on the biggest rear cog if it was rapid rise. Smallest if it's normal.

Factor in the condition of the rest of the derailleur before you spend $30/pulley.
