no complaints about this thing, shifts very cleanly, and very crisp. quite strong too, i crashed and it nailed a rock, putting a nice, deep scratch on the body of it. didn't bend it at all as it kept shifting cleanly and was still straight. for the money, you cant go wrong with this thing.

brilliat rear mech for the moneyno complaints about it at all, shifts very cleanly with sniper like prescision, and very crisp. quite strong too, i crashed and it nailed it into something, putting a nice, deep scratch on the body of it. didn't bend or crack it at all as it kept shifting cleanly and was still straight. for the money, you cant go wrong with this thing.

never really liked sram untill i got the brand new x7. this shifts great it shifts great and is relitively low cost. i was running shimano first but the thing with sram is your buy shifters and the derailler. so you cna't just buy the deraller and be done. overall great privce and great buy.

very reliable had this for 2 years now and had no problems at all very smooth up and downshifts in the time i have had this my brother has gone through two x.9's and we ride together so in my opinion these are stronger

good shifting. It is not too long. It is at a fair price. would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a cheapish but good derailleur.

Just as good as the sram x9 but for a little bit less, fantastic shifting even when on the roughest of ground, very quick and quiet and strong.

probably the best buy allong with deore, maybe better due it doesen't make allot of noise when driven, hitting the frame like deore. the shifting precision is awesome

Flawless shifts, outer cable doesnt have to bend round so that doesnt break, very sturdy hasn't broken or given me any hassle with virtually no servicing!
No complaints!

Great rear der. holds up to the beatings and will still shift as smooth as butter. Haven't had any problems what so ever.
