Heatdeath Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Got a stick in my derailleur and bent the cage yesterday, these seems to be prone to that particular issue. Have 9 usable gears at best, after attempting to straighten it. Besides Pinkbike, eBay, Craigslist, anyone have a suggestion for sourcing a replacement, or happen to be selling one? GX would be ideal, might consider also NX or X01. New or used in good condition. Older style 50T compatible OK. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinBike Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I am generally in favor of Amazon for these things. You can get one to your door tomorrow with Prime, it will be new and you will be back on the trails. If you go any of the other routes, you'll spend less money but you will spend more of your time both dealing with it and waiting for it. Time is money and time waiting is time not riding. I bite the bullet and pay now to get it quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatdeath Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 Sorry should have mentioned initially, but these appear to be on backorder everywhere via the normal retail channels until October or November at least. Some AXS stock around, but not looking to go that route for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBaron Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I'm assuming its safe to say that 11 spd will not work for you application? I've got an older spare X1 11spd you could borrow until something arrived. Later, CJB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, I should be able to limp along with it as is until I can find a replacement (hopefully soon). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one of these on my X01 11spd and it works great. Tested it on my X01 Eagle and it works just as well. Also, eagle pulleys will swap over, unless you want to buy the bling ones. https://www.garbaruk.com/rear-derailleur-cage-for-sram-11-12-speed.html?category=15 Edited September 6, 2021 by ATXZJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
