Title: Rear derailleur
Post by: Richard Squar on February 20, 2007, 05:42:17 pm
I have a 1993 bike with Shimano Deore XT components.  I can't find a replacement rear derailleur RD-M735 with long cage SGS for it.  What other derailleurs would be compatible with it?  Thanks.

I fitted one of these to my Dawes when it needed a refit. It works for me with a 7 speed block & XT rapidfire changers.

You  can be assured, that any modern 8-9-10 speed long reach rear mech will fit and work perfectly. The Index is in the levers!
