Overall Product Rating 5 / 5
Excellent workhorse

ConsNone
ProsIt does exactly what Shimano claims it can.
Bought to replace a worn out rear mech, like-for like. Still hard to fault after all these years.
Once the H/L/B/Cable adjusters are properly set up, the indexed changes on, for example, a 9 speed 11-34 cassette X 22/32/44 rings, are faultless.
A really solid MTB workhorse.
Good piece of kit

ProsDoes the job
Had this fitted as standard on my Thorn Club Tour which is my favourite bike, been riding Thorn bikes for about 15 years and their quality and general 'feel good' is spot-on.

ProsQuiet, Smooth, allows a large cassette to be used
I wanted a long cage rear Derailleur, for my Cycle,. This worked well, allowing use with Shimano 105, 10 speed shifters, compatibility is good, which as allowed me to use a 34/11 rear cassette with ease, I could even use a larger cassette later if I want to.
I now have a very wide range of gearing which has perfect gear spacing for me. combined with the 105 shifter this deraileur, makes shifts accurately, quietly and smoothly.

Compatable with 4600 tiagra
By
05 Sep 2023
Will this work with tiagra shifters if not what can i use to go to 34 t
This will work with the older 4600 Tiagra group set and any of the older 10 speed Shimano gears, it is not compatible with the newer Shimano 4700 group set. SK 06/09/2023

Can I use this with ST-M737 deore xt slr plus shifters?
By

Will the shadow version work?
9 speed derailleurs will work with 8 speed shifters, the cable pull is almost identical, however care must be take to ensure all the stops are correctly set up to prevent possible over shift. 03/04/23

Yes this will suit as a replacement, but any 9 speed MTB rear mech will suit fine.

Would this be compatible with Dura Ace bar end shifters 9 speed?
By

Thanks, 11.01.21

No, as your mixing 9 speed and 10-speed road and mtb systems.

States min 28t sprocket but could you get away with a 25 or lower rear spocket.
By

NO, please stay within Shimano's minimum sprocket value for optimum performance.

Replacement rear derailleur advice required please

I need to replace my rear derailleur which is a Shimano Deore XT 9 speed (very old), can you please suggest any alternative options
Many thanks

Hello, yes this would be a suitable replacement.

Will this shift well with Sora ST-R3000 levers?`
By
23 Sep 2020
I'm concerned that this may be a less than optimal combination as I am not sure of the amount of cable pulled through for each shift is the same. If not can you recommend something that will work for my 48/36/26 13/11 touring set up?

Thanks.
Hi
Thank you for your enquiry. These 9 speed derailleur will work fine with the Sora shifters as 9 speed Road & MTB are cross compatible & pull the same amount of cable. We often pair up a combination like this on our own touring bikes.
Kind Regards. JP 24/09/20
Is this ok for 24 speed MTB
By
08 Jul 2020
8 speed cassette 32-11. 3 speed chainwheel 42-22
You will need to match 8 to 8, 9 speed derailleur will not be suitable, look at - https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/derailleurs-rear-mtb/?speed=8

Thanks - 09/07/20
Will this rear derailleur be any good for a 11-36 rear cassette
By
28 May 2020
I have a old Marin wolf ridge which have a 9 speed Shimano deore I purchased this Shimano 11-36 cassette but the old derailleur won’t clear the largest cog.do you think if I had a longer chain and this rear derailleur it would work.i have three rings on the front.thanks for your help
Hi, it is unlikely as Shimano say max 34 tooth sprocket. Thanks
Replacement for Shimano 105
By
27 Apr 2020
Hi, just getting back into cycling with my old bike Specialized Sirrus Expert 2009. The rear mech needs replacing, currently Shimano 105 9 speed with 11-28 cassette and 30-42-52 front. Will this model be compatible.

Cheers
Andy
Hi
Thank you for you enquiry. Yes this 9 speed rear derailleur will work with the set up that you currently have.
Kind Regards. 27/04/20
10 speed compatible?
By
01 Feb 2020
I see a previous answer is that this is not 10 peed compatible BUT you have a bike on your website that includes this item as part of a 10-speed set up - Im confused if it whippoorwill 10 speed to not.

The bike I refer to on your site is: Thorn Audax Mk3 555S - Black - Touring/Audax Bike - EX DEMO and the description is

Transmission : Shimano Deore FC-T611 10 Speed Triple Chainset - Black - 48/36/26T - 170mm, Shimano Deore RD-M591 9 Speed Top Normal Rear Derailleur - Black - SGS / Long Cage
The 9 speed Shimano MTB mechs will work with Road 10 (except Tiagra 4700), by the text book, you would match 9-9 and 10-10.

Can I use this with 50/34 chainring & 11/40 cassette?
By
29 Jul 2019
I need to replace a 9 speed Shimano Sora rear derailleur to accommodate a 50/34 chainring & 11/40 cassette. Will this work, with or without a Wolf Tooth Roadlink?
Hi, we think you will need a derailleur hanger extender to make this work. Try our part 46570. Thanks 30/07/19
Would this be a suitable replacement for my elderly RD-M570?
By

this will be fine.

Yes these are compatible with 9 speed Sora levers.

What is the maximum cassette with a triple?
By
02 Jan 2018
Hi,

With a triple, as suggested the maximum would be 34T.

Thanks
What is the maximum size cassette this can work with?
By
01 Jan 2018
The maximum according to shimano is 34t, but with 36t and 40t cassettes out there for 9 speed setups - is this the mech for the job?
Hi there,

It normally depends on the set up of the front chainset, with a single ring this should be fine to be used on a 36-40T - just adjust the B tension screw.

Thanks
Spare Pulley Wheels
By

Could you please indicate which replacement jockey wheels are used for this derailleur.
Many Thanks.
Hi,

The original replacements for this rear derailleur are no longer available but there are a few compatible alternatives. The best match of these would be the jockey wheels from the Altus RD-M370 which are SJS Cycles part 34586.

Thanks.
