from Boxberg Germany Date Reviewed: May 3, 2008 Strengths: well it's a derailleur. It does what it should. It shifts quite well but the material is the problem Weaknesses: Iv'e had two snap on me close to where it bolts on to the frame. The first time I thought it was a fluke, but the second time a small stick hit it and bamm, it snapped off. It must be a manufacturer defect. Either way this derailleur is garbage. Im going back to Single Speed again Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $120.00 Bike Setup: 06 Cannondale F600

from Westminster, CO Date Reviewed: April 24, 2008 Strengths: This thing is sooo crisp and smooth, once it's set up. I can't see X0 being $180 better than this. The limit screws are big and easy to work with too. Weaknesses: I had to shim it, even after screwing in the mounting bolt fully to the hanger. It still had play on the mounting bolt shaft. Also, it wouldn't play right until the front was fully dialled in too.

from Canada Date Reviewed: December 6, 2007 Strengths: good shifting action when it's working Weaknesses: Flimsy, breaks easily. Many design problems with this rear derailleur. Went through several of them in one season, all with different problems. I also found the thumb lever part of the shifter to be in an awkward position.

from Ligonier, PA Date Reviewed: August 30, 2007 Strengths: Accurate, reliable, dependable. My setup is the 9.0 rear derailleur (med cage) with SRAM PG 970 cassette and SRAM PC 951 chain. I set it up and have had very little fine tuning since. Always shifts when it should and never shifts when it shouldn't. Weaknesses: None. The only other product I would ever consider is the X.0 and I cannot imagine how it is worth the additional cost.

from Vancouver, BC, Canada Date Reviewed: July 3, 2005 Strengths: This rear derailleur (SRAM 9.0) came with my bike and worked great without any problems. Almost never had to adjust it. It is great for grip shifters. Weaknesses: The part snapped where it is plastic and hangs from the derailleur hanger. I think it was caused by a stick that got caught in the wheel.
