Hi everyone,Ive got a 2nd hand marin bobtail trail. I get it indexing up nicely,wont go down well. cables,hanger seemed ok,derailleu not bent but a bit worn an sloppy,so i replaced it. bought a nice deore m592 shadow on ebay.i didnt need a long cage but it was a good price. At first it seemed fine. now after a few months an cpl months not using ,its doing it again.Its all lined up straight.ive just changed the old cable.outers seem fine running free. ive just read the jockey wheel an the biggest cog must only have a 3 or 4mm gap.but i cant get it closer than 12-14mm with the B screw. Is this why its shifting poorly,am i going to have shell out for another derailleur. or would the normal solution be a different hanger? Appreciate any advice,ive spent the ENTIRE day on it.
