I had this derailleur up and running in minutes. I literally spend less than 5 minutes attaching to hanger, cabling, adjusting HI and LO and running through the gears.
Good product but I returned for the later model that has the clutch.
XT as ever decent kit works well great shift and straightforward fit. If You've a shimano 10s set up can't go wrong. This was a direct replacement for one that had been damaged in a RTC with a Mercedes. Just hope the Mercedes was more damaged. Their fault I should add!
I bought a used Salsa Mukluk with Sram x5 shifters and x7 rear derailleur. I rode and was climbing a steep hill and the chain broke and somehow the left shifter broke, must have hit with hand when trying to recover from chain break. Replaced shifter and chain. The next week I felt like something was stuck in my back spokes. Looked down and the rear derailleur was broken. It was cold but that is no excuse, it broke off right where the cable is fed through derailleur. Now I think SRAM derailleurs stink, ordered XT shifter, rear derailleur and SRAM chain (Chains are still good) No problems ever since. All our bikes have Shimano XT, can't be beat for reliability.
It is Dyna-sys derailleur without a clutch. It is smooth, responsive and light. An excellent derailleur for the price if you are trail or cross country riding.
its well built, lightweight and shifts accurately you cannot ask for more. if it lasts as long as my previous Shimano products then it will work out to be a bargain at the price I paid.
