I need some new jockey wheels to fit SRAM X9 derailleur. Looked on ebay and they have some nice blue ones that would go great with my bike but they say they wont work with the X9. The only ones that fit the X9 are boring.

Can anyone suggest some good jockey wheels that dont cost a fortune.

Thanks.

    have a look at your jockey wheels and see what type they are as not all are the same on the X9.

    if yours is the two hole version on the upper wheel you may have problems.

    These fit and are cheaper than SRAM ones and have better bearings http://www.dotbike.com/ProductsP3992.as ... aign%3dDDI

    Yeah, that's what I've got in one of mine, really good. Just occasionally they clog a little with fine mud but it's the outer shell not the bearing that clogs so it's easy to sort.
