Greetings I have a couple of older long cage Deore LX, 9-speed Rapid Rise rear derailleurs in great shape on 2 bikes.
RD-M580 SGS Given the longer chainstays and hence longer chain on my Appa, I'm thinking it may be advisable to try to increase the spring tension on one of them. I take the bike off-road a lot and there's a lot of slap. I could change up components but I want to try this first. It's my understanding the spring tension can be increased by placing the spring end into a different hole in the derailleur cage. However, from my limited internet research on this, it appears that this particular derailleur may only provide 1 hole and therefore no adjustability. There's not a lot of info on the Shimano site for this mech. So, I'm coming to the group before taking the derailleur apart. Does anyone know if that particular derailleur allows spring tension to be increased?
