Paul Rasta mech

[trip]

Hi,

Up for sale a Paul Rasta rear mech. Bought it here long ago but never used it, so finally this one has to go.
I´d like 200€ plus shipping, which is less than what I paid, but I´m open to offers. I´d consider swaping it for some nice bits, let me know what you have, by pm please

Thanks!

excuse my poor knowledge, but will these run 8 speed?

Yes they do, also 9 speed
The body of the 8 and 9 speed hub have the same width, if I'm not mistaken.

The only exception is the number of teeth of the last cogs. I alway's preferred 28t max. I cannot remeber if 32t max is also possible...

Yes they will! I´ve used other Paul mech with 8 and even 9 speeds, but with thumbies and in friction mode. To be honest, they look cool, but don´t expect great shifting... :roll:

This one has medium cage, with the long one you can even run 34 teeth, with this one I wouldn´t use something bigger than 32.
