No probs, may just keep it original for the malverns but would like to see what you have

Only other option I have is a 9 speed 105 , you're wanting 1055/56 105 though I think .......

How about a 1991 (PE) 1055 champagne short cage in VGC? Almost mint except for a light scratch on the face plate.


I also have a 1988 (ML) 6400 in GC but might be a little early for what you’re after?

The 105 may be alright, what’s the total capacity of the 105?

I believe it’s 28 with a maximum cog size of 28t according to Shimano. So in reality it would manage 30t just fine.

I can actually swap out a 105 from my road bike so I actually may be alright, out of curiosity what are you thinking for the tricolor mech?

No bother, it’ll just go back in the drawer so let me know if you do want it at any point.

The tricolor you can have for £23 posted.

Modern Tourney long-cage?

Cheaper than chips.

 

[Mod-Master]

Too modern for me and I managed to get the bolt that I rounded off out and cleaned it up so now no need for a replacement
