Microshift is making a Dyna-sys compatible 10 speed bar end shifter, I have
not tried it though.

what did you do in lieu of a barrel adjuster? just make the adjustments at
the downtube?
I used the M4000 Alivio on my wife's bike because it is similar in design
to this XT but has a barrel adjuster.

Yes, I can confirm this. I use the XT RD-M772 with BS79 10-speed indexed
bar-end shifters. It works great. Shimano 7-10 speed road and 7-9 speed
MTB all use the SIS cable pull standard, so they're inter
The price was a pleasant surprise. Riv used to sell them for $104. The
XCD might have been prettier but, after a quick test ride, I'm happy with
the decision. Successfully installed, tuned and feeling faster (maybe
smoother?) than ever.

Thanks for the great advice everyone!

That's a great price on probably one of the best 9-speed derailers still
available. I've not tried the SunXCD, but I am glad to hear it works great.
Might try it on my Roadeo. I found this interesting on the Riv product
description page for the XT M772:

yes, it works. Even though the internets says it does not.

I have both an XT and the SunXCD on bikes of mine. I have not noticed a
difference in performance between them. The XCD has a barrel adjuster, the
XT doesn't. As far as the XCD being the same derailleur as the MicroShift
R10, it's apparent from looking at pictures of each that they are not th
I appreciated everyone's quick feedback on this. That xcd looks great but, for

The research I did this morning implies that the xcd was more of a touring
randonneur derailleur whereas the xt was more of a mountain one.

I mean, the Sun XCD? How does it compare to the Shimano XT series?

works very well with the xd2 crank and 8 speed chain. the longer cable pull
even makes for more subtle trimmng.

I have the Microshift R10 also and it works great and looks pretty in shiny
silver.

Be sure to click on the pic of the XCD in the catalog mentioned above so
you can see the sparkle effect. It does that when you hit 30mph. ;)

Hmm, I never thought about using the Shimano 9-speed bar ends in friction mode
to support a clutched rear derailer. I believe all the clutch deraillers are
10-speed. I wonder how this would work with the XD2 crank?

To add one more o this. If you friction shift you can make a modern xt derailer
work despite the different cable pull. At least it works with my 8 speed
shimano ultegra shifters. Shifts very well across the whole cassette. Main
reason to go that route is to get a clutched derailer. So much quiet
Wow! Thanks everyone. This is very helpful. I hadn't thought about
Jeff's suggestion of the "semi-vintage" XT derailleurs of the '90's. I
used to use both of those and couldn't kill either on previous mountain
bikes I’ve owned. Unfortunately, I need to purchase and install something

I have an Altus. It works like Riv says it does. Shifts well, trims easily.
For 20-something bucks what's to lose?

Adding to the SunXCD choice is the Microshift R10, which is the same
derailleur at lower cost. Aside from that, I would dodge the low-end
Shimano in favor of improved materials and Q/C on the higher-grade choices.
Since the 70s, Shimano has designed a weight-saving stress-riser into all

John,
Sorry to learn of your mechanical issues and glad you got home easily
enough.
I have used many different derailers over the years. Currently I use the
Altus on 2 Rivs, a Nashbar/microshift on 3 bikes, and a Deore on another.
I honestly cannot tell the difference. (Good wine is also w

I'd like to try one of those clutch derailers Shimano makes that prevents
chain-slap. There's a tiny wrench under a cover which you use to adjust how how
strong the friction is. I have no idea how this actually works, I just think
it's hilarious you can buy a derailer with a wrench inside ;)

Agreed on whimsy and anti-snobbery, but if your bike was mine, I'd spend
the same twenty-whatever bucks on a gently used M737/739 and hope that I
get summoned in a seance 100 years from now so I can check in on it.
