Hey not so sure about that incompatibility comment... I have the newest version of Dura Ace 10spd bar end shifters, running a Deore long cage derailleur with an 11-36 cassette in the back of my Atlantis. No issues at all! On Monday, April 6, 2015 at 9:07:35 AM UTC-5, Christian wrote: Thanks.

Exactly. It's the shifters that count less so than the derailer. The XT M772, with ten speed shifters, should work just fine with a 10 speed cassette. The problems arise when one tries to shift a 10 speed Dynasys derailer with 10 speed road shifters, like the 10 speed Dura Ace bar ends. It

Yeah. It's a bummer the Dynasys won't work--and they are cheaper. I have one on my mountain bike and it works quite well with compatible mtb shifters. Christian From my phone. Apologies for typos and brevity. On Apr 7, 2015, at 3:39 PM, Mark Reimer marknrei...@gmail.com wrote: Ah

Ah sorry, I mis-read, I thought it said no MTB derailleurs worked with road shifters. I see now the discussion was specifically about the Dynasys. On Tue, Apr 7, 2015 at 2:37 PM, Christian McMillen christian.w.mcmil...@gmail.com wrote: Exactly. It's the shifters that count less so than the

It's one of the few Shadow style derailers that comes from the factory with a barrel adjuster on the derailer cable termination point. Yeah, I hate that lack of barrel adjusters. I'm using an M772 on my KOM (with 9-speed bar end shifters) and I had to add an inline cable adjuster (no

It would be nice if someone would make some dynasys compatible bar-ends as most of the newer higher end Shimano MTB derailers are dyna-sys. The M592 that Rivendell carries is a good go-to derailer for now, but I wonder how long they are going to keep making them. I have used an M4000 Alivio on

The Gevenalle GX shifters and levers are approaching this. They use microshifter bar end shifters mounted to Tektro ml520 levers. The shifters and pods are not yet available on their own, just OEM. when they are they will be the ones that will work with Dynasys.

Well the M772 is a good choice for either 9 or 10 spd bar ends or other road shifters. I am running a M772 Mid cage with 9spd barends and it shifts flawlessly. 9spd is cheaper, more durable and friction is still an option on the bar ends. I'm running it as a 42-29 double in front and 18spds seems

Thanks Dave. Iahd thought the M772 was 10 speed for some reason. I do know of the unfortunate lack of compatability between 10 speed Dynasys MTB RDs but perhaps was willing myself to believe the m772 was 10. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW

Shimano 10 spd bar ends are no longer compatible with Shimano 10 spd Mtn derailleurs. You will want to find a 9spd rear derailleur. I think the 772 is actually a 9spd derailleur. If your frame doesn't have adjusters I would recommend finding a R derail that has an adjuster. Here is a pretty
