I have a shot-to-hell X9 Long Cage on my DW Spot. Running only the small and middle chainrings on an XT crank. Are they any issues with going to a short cage? Looking at the X.O. Also, any guess at how many links in the chain, if any, I would need to remove when going from long to short cage? I think the short cage would last longer, in theory, as I should bang it less against stuff.
Oh, and the cassette is 11-34. I have read the sticky in the Drive Train forum, but wanted homer opinions and to see if anyone runs short cages...
Thanks for the help!
