wanted: 8 or 9 speed mtb groupset

Posted on
  • Does anyone have an old mtb groupset they're not using? Doesn't all need to be matching, but must be in good working order. Must be 8 or 9 speed, and preferably of shimano XT standard, but would accept Deore at a minimum

    The bits I really need are:
    -pair of shifters (3x9)
    -Rear derailleur
    -Front derailleur to suit 29.8mm seat tube (but not essential)
    -Pair of triple-ring cranks (preferably with serviceable rings)
    -Brake levers compatible with cantilevers (specifically STX RC style ones 'servo wave')

    If you don't have everything, parts will do for now. I'll use a new chain and cassette, unless you want to offer me something not-too-worn.

    Thanks,
    Sam

  • I have a XT rear mech if you're interested. M761, looking for £10. Also have a shifter to go with it but it's lower spec, Alivio I think, so you may not want that.

  • The 29.8mm will refer to the seatpost diameter not the tube diameter.

    I have a new Shimano LX FC-T671 with 48/36/26 rings, comes with the matching outboard bottom bracket., bought it for my audax bike but got a shiny black miche triple to match the frame..Though technically a '10 speed' c/set the rings on these work fine with 9 speed chains.
    I also have a new (fitted but used on a display bike) Shimano 9 speed 12-27 cassette and also a new/fitted but not used 53 link HG53 (plus a used quick link)
    £64 posted for the chainset, £13 posted on the cassette, £7 for the chain. If you take the lot then £80 including tracked courier.

  • I haz XTR 3x8 shifters and mechs, reasonable condition.

    PM if interested
