Hi guys,
i'm new on the forum and just need a bit of help regarding this rear mech.
i know the basic rule is short cage - single chainset, medium cage - double chainset and long cage - triple..
i have a triple chainset and wondered if i'd get away with it using this?
I've pre-prdered the GS long cage model off chain reaction cycles http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=20700
any help appreciated, cheers.

well you will have gears that you can not use."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

i won't get full use of the triple set?
go for the SGS super long cage model instead?0 -
well the total range of the GS 33teeth and you have?
have a look in the FAQ's there is a chart in there."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
