  1. hi all.

    I've just installed a new cassette which has a larger range than the
    previous. Without the chain on the top jockeywheel knocks in to the largest
    sprocket even with the b-tension fully tightened. is this correct? should i
    be relying on the chain tension to pull the jockey wheels away from the
    cassette or should they sit clear without the chain installed.

    note: rear mech is long cage.

    Keeping the top pulley from hitting larger cogs is accomplished by
    screrwing th b limit screw in, tightening a spring in the pivlot,
    rotating the cage back. If the screw is all the way in and still
    contact, longer screw or shorten the chain by one link.
