Just trashed my rear mech today and need to replace it.
Is there any way to tell if is a short medium or long cage mech.
I am running an 11-34 rear cassette at present.
cheers

looked in the FAQ´s?
3 rings on the front long mech.....
but there is a chart to work out exactly whet you need depending on the range of teeth you are covering."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Distance between my short cage jockey wheel bolts is about 60mm, medium is about 76mm and long about 100mm.
I use a medium that works best with 20/30/42 rings and both 11-21 and 11-30 cassettes. Short cage doesn't like the 11-30 and long cage doesn't index well between the smallest teeth.AT MY AGE, I SHOULD KNOW BETTER !!!0
