Hi guys,

About a year ago I updated from 6500 Ultegra 9sp, to 6600 10sp. I updated everying except for the front mech, which I think I need to update now as the adjuster screws feel pretty weak and I can't get accurate adjustment.

Question is, there's a few discounted 'braze ons' around. My frame takes a band on. So can I reuse the 6500 band, with a 6600 mech?

Cheers

    If the actual mech is detachable from the band then yes but I suspect your 6500 is an all-in-one job.

    Plenty of braze-on bands on ebay/CRC etc. for about a tenner.

    Cheers, I see however our friends at Merlin have a 6600SL band on for £22 so I think that's going to be the way to go :)
