Wait, why am I banned from Your Most annoying customer and why? I have posted some quality material in there.

The shifter and the cassette are a match, same year and model. I was just wondering whether if the derailleur has a shifting preference: like a 10-speed-spaced notch in the mechanism that makes it "10 SPEED ONLY" according to their website. And by chance, do you know whether if the 8-speed chain will fit into the cage of the 10-speed derailleur?

Hi dave, jason here. I have a question, hoping you can clear it up. Can I use the 2011 X.9 10-speed derailleur with my 8-speed shifter and 8-speed cassette? Thanks!

I hear ya, I sold my Transition Bank but I want to build another one for next summer. No time to ride this year, just work work work!
