With their longer cable travel do indexed SRAM rear derailleurs stay in adjustment better than Campy and Shimano ones?
It seems like they should as the longer cable travel per shift should make them less sensitive to cable stretch and housing compression.
I guess I'm an "experienced mechanic", but I've never had a SRAM system to work on. In my experience, Shimano derailleurs stay in adjustment until the cable needs to be replaced. I can't recall the last time I readjusted things after they were correctly set up.
