i recently bought a bike with a deore and now its busted, it all in one peice and can be repaired but i dont know how. every four or five crankstrokes in every gear it does the whole shifting lag thing except im not shifting, please if anyone has encountered a similar problem what did you do to fix?
thanks

Dan, I hate to tell you this but I think the best choice is to get a new one. There's this place where people donate bikes in Eauclaire near South East entrance. They give free parts out there. Go check it out and see if you can get a new derailleur. Also, if you don't want to get rid of it, they teach you how to repair your bike for free. Check it out, it's a sweet place. I just donated my old bike there on Saturday. hope I helped.

dose any one know if there is a new bolt included with a new shimano derallier or are you expected to attatch the new deriallier to the frame with the old one? (which to me sounds crazy yet theres no bolt with my new derallier!)

go to your local bike shop and see if they have another hanger? - if not, get a hammer and a flat surface and bash it till its good, i did this and it was fine.
