Riv ‘n’ stuff (crow's bikes)

I wasn’t expecting much of a difference tbh. But I had the mech as I’d foolishly bought it for the rockhopper (thinking the wheels were 9 speed) and the 10 speed wasn’t great as the chainrings weren’t designed for it, so I thought I’d try it. It’s a real revelation, just feels like it wants to shift either way and does so with far less effort and thought. Virtually no ghost shifting either, and if it ever does it just gets easier rather than harder.
I shall now be hoarding rapid rise mechs and keeping an eye out for if Riv ever put their own into production :)
