Devout Dirtbag
A small conundrum I'm sure some wise old owl on here will know?
Bike has 1992 ST-MO71 Deore DX rapidfire push-button shifters without any friction option.
My question relates to the RH shifter assembly.
As you click, the detente/ball bearing within the shifter dictates the amount of indexed movement at the rear mech. The bike has an 8 speed cassette instead of a 7 and whilst trying to set this up, it appears that the indexation will never match the sprocket spacing on that cassette?
Am I right or am I missing something here?
Can this system; 7 spd with 8 rear sprockets ever work correctly and if 'NO', what are the required changes; cassette, chain, both?
All help and advice gratefully received!
A thousand 'thank you's',
