I was just out swapping handlebars (thanks Hugh!) and had to pull a Wald basket to do it. I noticed that the stays on this basket are definitely different than the ones on the bike that collapsed on me. Those stays had a much larger (~four inch) flat section with multiple hub drillings on the end

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

I always found the stock Wald baskets wiggly. But it is a big upgrade to add a nitto rack underneath! I think the best part is it lowers the basket and shortens the stays. Less wiggle, for sure. Edwin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners

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

Will, how is sway from a heavy loaded front basket a function of bicycle geometry? Seems to me it's more a function of the way the basket attaches to the bicycle, which are two points near the stem and two point at the front axle, which doesn't make for a particularly laterally stiff design.
