I'm in the market for a new rear derailleur, i currently have a Shimano LX M580 Rapid rise fitted. Ideally i want to swap to something that is also rapid rise so the derailleur moves to the large cog at the back with no tension on the cable. does Shimano have anything in its current line up ?
Ive had a look through the range and can't see much only the older xt m770.

It has not been carried over to 10 speed, so the last models that were out were the M970, M770, M580, M530.0

I got crc vouchers for christmas and just fancied something new and shiny!
I'll just keep it on now, as i like the rapid rise too much to switch back to conventional.0 -
Oh OK, I had RR (LX) on the rear of my commuter until I went to twist shift (X0 - which with the detents feels much the same whether going up or down the gears), the RR is now on the back of my wifes bike as I was buidling that when I swapped on my commuter.

Generally plenty of NOS RR on Ebay because no one wants them.I don't do smileys.
