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.
