Tinkerers' Corner - Shimano RD Cage Swap - LIVE FEED!

Last one almost assembled. Springs located, cages pushed in the knuckle, quick tension test,
nose pliers to put the circlip in from the front, and then make sure it's well seated by giving it
a good prod with a flat blade screwdriver.

Finishing touches to the Sora with the Alivio cage. Making it a true 9 speed by taking the 8 speed sticker off! :LOL:

End of the LIVE FEED folks :!: A bit of fun. Happy with the result. :D

Time to polish off the rest of the bottle....

DISCLAIMER:
Modifying bike parts can be dangerous. Don't come crying to me if your modded Sora RD goes
in your £4000 carbon Zipp rear wheel and you graze your bum.
