Hi, I'm trying to find out what's the length of long Sram XO rear mech, from the centre of one jockey wheel to the other. Mine measures 7.5cm - is that short/ med/ or long?
Had a quick search on here but couldn't find anything

    arg, I am being a bit usless at the moment. went to look at some pics of mine but then i started to wonder if mine is med or short.

    but I have a feeling that that is a Medium.

    will measure mine tomorrow evening.

    It was advertised as being a long rear mech when i bought it from a seller on ebay a few weeks ago.
    I'm bit of a newbie when it comes to bike parts, am building my own bike, so not had the chance to fit it. Thought id ask as it looked a little small compared to the photographs ive seen.

    If it is a medium, would it be ok to use on a triple front crankset? Have a 9 speed rear cassette

    but if you dont mind not using big ring and big cog then you will be ok.

    Cheers for the info man!
    I've searched the net for the dimensions, but couldn't find anything on it.
    I've decided to put it up for sale now, would rather have a long one to have full use of all the gears without any limitations
