Carrera Fury.
It uses X5 shifters and derailleur.
A branch on the ground won the battle and bent it.
Is it like for like or can I fit X7 or X9 or shimano etc etc.
If I can fit another which do people recommend?

replace with a Sram numbered mech.
But first make sure that it is not only the mech hanger that has bent."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Doesn't X3 use the 1:1 ratio too or is there some other incompatibility?BorisSpencer wrote:x5, x7, or x9 without changing the shifters.

x3 if you like, but that would be a downgrade.Northwind wrote: It's like I covered it in superglue and rode it through ebay.0

True, but we don't know about budget here.
Have run all the X3-X9 rear mechs on various bikes, and to be honest apart from shinyness (and maybe a tiny bit of weight) I can't REALLY tell the difference in use.
I love the bling of my X9, but X7 might be best cost/looks/weight compromise?

How come not XX or X0? I assumed all SRAM mechs were compatible.0 -
Ten speed mechs wil not work properly. This inlcudes the new x7 and x9 (and X0 and XX).0
