While I was ordering the Jtek bolt from SJS I got one of their shimano compatible rear gear hanger brackets - a brilliantly simple piece for fitting a modern rear mech to frames with forward facing drop out and no hanger.
Which meant I could use the 10 speed XT rear mech, shifter and cassette I had off my, now sold, mtb. The only isue I had was the 11t cog caught on the end of the chainstay until I changed the bolt that came with the hanger bracket for one with a smaller head, allowing the qr to sit a little farther back. I still had to block out the bottom two cogs as the chain would get jammed otherwise but this bike is for chilled out riding so we won't miss them.
