from Elkridge, MD, USA Date Reviewed: October 12, 2009 Strengths: Shifts really clean and precise. Handles a lot of abuse. Weaknesses: Due to its high level of precision, if it is not adjusted just right, then your chain can hop around. However a poorly adjusted derailleur is the owners fault not the product. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: seven springs and snowshoe Duration Product Used: 1 Year Similar Products Used: Other xtr derailleurs and xt derailleurs Bike Setup: transition dirtbag, chris king, deity, fox 36, azonic outlaws

from Burlington, VT USA Date Reviewed: April 30, 2008 Strengths: This review is for the M952 rear derailleur. Its strength is that it works, keeps working, then works some more. No fuss, no fidgeting. The derailleur came on my Cannondale T2000 touring bike, so it hasn't seen much dirt riding. I will say that after more than 13,000 road miles it shifts just fine. I haven't cleaned, lubed, or serviced this much at all during the 4 years i've owned it, the pullys are still smooth. Weaknesses: Price if you're buying one new. From what i hear the XT are just as good, though perhaps not as light Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $75.00 Purchased At: Bike shop in MA Similar Products Used: LX rear derailleur. Bike Setup: Cannondale T2000 touring bike.
