I have an old Suntour derailleur and a Campagnolo derailleur that work
really nice with no under or over shifts but I am now getting "ghost"
shifts on my newer Deore derailleur..... actually it is a few thousand
miles old but I never thought of getting non floating pully wheels and
wonder where I can buy decent quality ones. My "ghost" shifting bike
also sports a SRAM seven speed cassette and appropriate gauge chain. I
thought of going to a nine speed system and even wondered if my frame
was tweaking under my 258 pound pedal pressure......cable housing is
clean also and I didn't get these problems when the drive train was
set up as a 8 speed and with a different chain. I wonder if my
derailleur is just worn out.
