Anyone for a show of disapproval and defiance by collectively turning up in masks; perhaps of whichever official is responsible for instigating this..?
A new wheelset might be in my future for a utility bike so I'm researching hubs.
I have a set of 9sp QR Deore hubs (M610 perhaps?) on another bike which are conspicuously, gloriously quiet whilst freewheeling - something I'd like on the wheelset I plan to put together.
I'm thinking of something around Deore level as this seems to be where the value is; the M6010 looks like a good bet (unqualified sound not withstanding) although I can't find them in many places so suspect they may have been discontinued..
EDIT: To clarify I'm after a pair of hubs in 142x12mm and 100x12mm fitment.
Thanks!
I want to run the Shimano T8000 3x10 drivetrain with a clutched RD; which the groupset's RD-T8000 isn't.
The Deore XT T8000 touring 10sp drivetrain consists of:
FC-T8000 crankset (48/36/26)
HG400 cassette (11-34)
SL-T8000 shifters
I'm currently attempting to use an RD-M6000-SGS derailleur which shifts OK but doesn't have the capacity to accommodate the full gear range (stated RD capacity is 43T total, range of 3x10 T8000 setup is 45T).
I'd hoped I'd get away with it but the chain is reluctant to shift into 48/34 and slack on 26/11; I know these combinations should never be used but I'd like to retain functionality if I can.
The only other half-suitable RD I can find is the RD-M8000-SGS which has a stated capacity of 47T. Both max and min largest sprocket size is stated as 40T (which seems odd for a "triple-friendly" RD). Also it's 11sp and the shifters are 10.
So... does anyone know whether the RD-M8000-SGS will:
a) Work with a 34T cassette
b) Work with 10sp shifters (are movement ratios the same or different between 10 and 11sp?)
Cheers!
I was especially impressed by how swiftly and efficiently rubbish got tidied before everyone left; what a great bunch of folks.
I hope you all had as-great-a-day as I did 😄
