After having a rummage in the garage this week I've recovered 2 interesting Suntour rear mechs (XCE and XCT) I forgot I had. It would be cool to use one on my deliberately simple Salsa El Mariachi build, as a talking point.
I've been trying to find out the cable pull ratio and cassette spacing for the Accushift XCT and XCT systems, to see if there is any way to get a Suntour rear mech to work with an indexed Shimano shifter and Shimano cassette. I could always run the mechs with thumbshifters set to friction (the ultimate in low tech simplicity!!), but I do quite like having imdexed gears.
Do any Retrobikers know the cable pull and cassette spacing for Accushift?
