derailleur
Sold: Shimano 105 5600 rear derailleur/mech, short cage, silver
Hello,
I'm selling my 105 rear mech. It was taken from a brand new bike and has only been ridden 15 dry miles before being replaced with a long-cage one.
The mech's in excellent condition (it's still got the luminous packing grease on it). The only blemish is a tiny cosmetic scratch on the underneath which you can see in the picture to the left of the cable clamp. Jockey wheels, spring etc. all like new. Cheers.
Rear derailleur help!!!
Hey guys, got a new 105 rear mech for my bike, its the first one I've ever fitted myself and for the life of me i cant quite get it running correctly. Mostly it just won't move into the largest cassette ring. But anyhow could somebody give me a step by step walk through of what to do from the start or point me to somewhere that does.
Cheers,
Ben

I wanted to use SRAM but then I had a go on a SRAM equipped bike and don't like the shifters, so selling before I spend more money!
£80 posted all together - I paid £78.95 for the rear mech and £35 for the front mech and these are brand new...
email me on kinetic_uk_2010@yahoo.co.uk if interested in either or both.


WTD: 9/10 speed Campagnolo front mech (not QS) 32mm band-on
Hello,
This is a pretty specific request, but I'm hoping that someone out there has a 9 or 10 speed Campagnolo double 32mm band-on front derailleur that's surplus to requirements. I'll consider any condition or model, except the QuickShift (QS) variants as they won't work with my particular ErgoPower levers. So if you've got something spare in your parts bin or are thinking about upgrading let me know.
Thanks for reading,
N.
Mech advice
So I just got my new bike, a Cervelo S1.
Troulbe is, I need junior gears on it, but I'm not sure the FD will accomdate them. Its brazed on, so I'm not sure just how much vertical adjustment there is possible to be. It needs a 42t chainring as the largest one, while it now has a 50t.
Question is, will it fit?
Thanks
Some mechanical advice sought.
I've got myself in a right pickle with my gearing. Last time I rode some of the cos were being missed or making lot of noise, so after doing a it of research and reading the installation manual (Shimano 105) I tinkered about with the barrel adjuster and limiting screws, noting seemed to get it quite right, often made it worse.
I got to the point where all the gears were engaging if a bit noisy and thought right, that's it I'll ride it. Then 10 miles in the highest gear starts trying to shift into the frame.
Advice sought: Shimano derailleur capacity
I was hoping to put an 11-28 cassette on my trusty old sequoia which has a long cage tiagra derailleur and currently runs on a 12-25 block. Having done a bit of homework, it looks like it can only handle a maximum of 27 teeth on the back.
Can anyone please advise, are Shimano technical specifications absolute, or is there the leeway I need to install 28 teeth at the back.
Any advice gratefully received.
How do you block off the big ring?
Well, the question's in the title.
How can you stop the big ring from being shifted to, I really need to know.
If you use the derailleur limiters, will you have to retension the cables?
Thanks Forumers.

Shimano Dura-Ace front mech
The design of the link has been improved so you get a slightly lighter action in both directions. But the most noticeable difference here is that you no longer get a trim option – the small movement to adjust the plate position without moving from the big to the small chainring. The wider link means you don’t need it, which makes life just a little easier. You can even – if you’re some kind of crazy anarchist – run the chain from big chainring to big sprocket and there’s no rubbing on the front mech.
