HI Rivsters. I'm wondering if anyone has successfully shifted a 12-36 shimano 9-speed cassette with an Altus RD?
I currently have an altus, and like it well enough, but am using a 44x30, 11-32 8 speed. The new setup would be a triple up front (48-34-24), and a 12-36. According to Shimano, the Altus only shifts up to a 34 cog. Just wondering if any of you Rivsters have been able to shift lower than that? I can hunt for another derailer if need be, but would much rather not. I don't like the looks of the one Riv sells (Shimano Deore 592) because it doesn't have the barrel adjuster. I guess could potentially go to the Alvio, or the used market. I actually have a Deore something or other which does shift to 36, but it's R Rise, and I have never gotten used to the reverse movement. Drives me mad!
