[x-DIVERDOWN-x]

I want to upgrade my stock f7 - 8speed(2010) to a 9 speed will this combo go together?

1. Race Face Ride crankset and BB 44/32/22 Chainrings (Old CR are 42/32/22 Shimano hyperdrive?? Dual SiS index??)

2. SRAM 2010 X-9 MTB REAR DERAILLEUR LONG CAGE 9 SPEED (Old is X-4 RD)

3. SRAM PG-990 Cassette 9speed red 11-32 or 11-34 (not sure what is correct to get, have 11-32 on 8speed now)

4. Sram X7 shifters 9 speed (old are sram x-4 8 speed)

5. want to keep OLD FDerail for now (SHIMANO ALTUS)

Please and Thank You!!!

I am just getting back into MTB after not riding for 8 years.

It works. And x9 shifter is much better than x7, maybe you just got a PG970 cassette and upgrade to x9 shifter?
But.. if i were u, maybe i will sell it and purchase a new f3...

Just ride it for now and once the chain, cogs and all are worn replace it with something better.
Just my 0.02.
