Should have thought about this more... the cassette doesn't matter. Just the number of teeth on the chainring. As long as it's even then we are kosher. Sweet!

OK, question! These sweet new chainrings that have wider and skinnier teeth profiles to match the chain are awesome... but don't they ONLY work if you're running a cassette with all even numbered cogs? AKA a 10,12,14,16,18, 20, etc... If you have an odd toothed cog in your cassette and your chain rides over it, won't that mean the chain will switch by one link and cause it to ride over the front chain ring in the "wrong" orientation? Or am I just crazy? Maybe I should run a test before posing this... too late.

These are the 5050x and according to Crankbrothers "are not designed to be rebuilt" (the 5050 xx is). So I honestly don't know. It looks like it can come appart but it uses a "cup and cone loose bearing system" not cartridge bearings. If it's anything like a headset I'm sure it can be rebuilt but you'd have to find the right ball bearings (it may just need adjusting, I'm not sure). Just trying to get full disclosure here. I do think you can get the spindle out, and if you have a bearing machine shop, it sounds like the chances of finding the right stuff shouldn't be too hard.

Shimano Deore LX Rear Deraileur - 9speed

$35 USD

Have an old Deore LX rear derailleur. Long cage I believe. Paypal only. Buyer pays shipping. Decent condition. No major bends not sure if there are minor or not, haven't used it in years. Missing the pinch bolt for the cable, should be easy to find.
