> Rode to day with diacompe shifters and 10 speed cassette and sram apex. S=
hitfted without problems. Sometimes Id had to do do some minor adjustment, =
but the chain would sit square on each gear. I jumped and sprinted several =
times to put pressure on the gears. Just to clarify, Im not some hot shot r=
acer who sprints to stop signs. I just wanted to make sure that the shiftin=
g was accurate.
rode again this weekend, with climbing and downhill. couldn't shift into th=
e lowest gear or the highest one. So, was limited to 8 sprokets. Got home =
and exchange the damned sram derailleur for an acera. Much better. Long liv=
e friction and cheap rear derailleurs.=20
