Hi,
Trying to source new Jockey wheels for my daughters retro (M737 - just like http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=107436) rear mech, not going to pay out for silly prices for genuine XT ones, they need to be narrow (like latest XT) not wide like the BSO ones, but not sure which is the cheapest one that is narrower as the techdocs don't make it clear.
So anyone know which of these http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... odelID=885 will fit?

TBH any 11T will do."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Thanks Nick, I'm looking at the STX RC ones are they 11T? I can't find anything on shimano tech docs for the STX.nicklouse wrote:TBH any 11T will do.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
Ahh could be ok. as the mech is 8spd originally."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

they will be fine as well."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
