  • trying to source a set of mini vs to pair up with road gevenalle levers. tyres are 44c and i don't mind the cable coming close. any recommendations or are they all the same clearance wise?

  • You'll want the 90mm ones like Trp cx9s or tektro rx6s, they work with road levers nicely, they'll also give a bit more clearance (5mm worth I guess).

  • thanks! the rx6 seem reasonably priced too.

    on another note, i’d need to upgrade the cassette and mech to match the 10-speed (road) gevenalle. i’ve been happy with the lightweight sram pg70 11-36 on my other bike. internet says 9-speed long cage xt shadow mechs can work a larger 10-speed cassette. is this foolish or should i retreat to 11-32 road cassette that the equivalent 10-speed road mech (105) can handle?
