The Shimano TX55 bolts onto a derailleur tab on the back axle dropout, Shimano spec reports the unit is compatible for up to 8 gear clusters. Should work on your Trek if the trek has a threaded hanger tab on the right rear dropout and is 8 gear for less back gear cluster.

So long as the derailleur is properly adjusted, yes it should work. The indexing is in the shifters themselves, not in the derailleur. This assumes you are using either a Shimano or a SRAM rear cassette. You may experience issues with a Campagnolo cassette.

First, it's a 12-30 not 11-30 and I have used this cassette with both a 105, RD 5700 short cage and an Ultegra RD 6700 short cage derailleur. That said, it is not compatible according to Shimano. I have read a great deal about longer B tension screws, frame geometry and hanger length but have done nothing beyond fitting the cassette and cranking the B tension to get about 1/4" (6mm) clearance between the jockey roller and cogs. If you're switching from an 11-28 the chain will probably be long enough but if you current biggest cog is 25 or smaller you will probably need a new chain. Personally, I have had trouble installing the Shimano connecting pins but have had no problem using the KMC quick links with Shimano chains.

Any Shimano / microshift / sunnrace rear derailleur will be controlled by this shifter. If derailleur description says 7/8 or even 9 speed it will work. The "speed of derailleur" is really its range of movement, ie how many cogs wide it can span. 6/7/8 all use the same chain because spacing is the same. When I had mounted these A050 thumb / paddle shifters on my sons 8 spd roadbike, we could only use 7 cogs, so we adjusted High or Low limit screw to exclude top or bottom cog. If u have flatbar these are a great choice. If u have road style drop handlebars, consider the related Shimano A070 Brake Lever Shifters.

Well it should work with any derailleur but you`ll need to match the number of gears that the derailleur has to the shifter like if the derailleur is a 7 speed then you would get a 7 speed shifter. Dose this help any?

Shimano Altus offers several variations. Which one are you compairing to? I have ordered and used six (6) of the Acera SL shifters and they are strong and perform well so I'd suggest making your selection based on your budget.

I have a 34 tooth mega flywheel and the tx75 and they are as smooth as silk together,(you must have mega shifters).the tx55 and tx75 both have adjustable cable router and small wheel at the back of the derailleur wich helps with cable routing and is easier on the cable(I think)the tx 35 dosent,the 55 and 75 are very similar!!!

your current derailer should work, you may have to move it up a bit on the frame, but should be no problems

I have the ultegra short derailer and switched from a 11-28 tiagra cassette to the 12-30 ultegra casette. It maxes out the derailer but has worked great for the Pittsburgh hills. Just completed the DC to PGH ride with that setup.

I think it depends on your cassette. It's meant for 9-speed cassettes. On Shimano's website, it's listed under the mountain bike parts. The Shimano road bike derailleurs are the Dura-Ace, Ultegra, 105, Tiagra, Sora, 2300 and 2200 series.

Depends on the existing deraileur, things like long cage and shifter components being shimano compatible have to be there. Chain length may need to be addressed.

I threw this very same Sunlite 103mm BB on an old Trek for the purpose of converting to single speed. Now depending on your frame..You may need a somewhat longer Spindle or BB.Or it could possibly be a Front derailleur adjustment issue.Good luck! Eddie

if you read in the description this derailleur will handle a maximum 34 tooth cog,yes it will work!!

I'm using my 12-30 with an Ultegra short cage, and it works just fine, this despite the fact that when I originally set it up the opinions expressed at the time said it would not work. I believe even Shimano had a company opinion that it was not appropriate to run that combo. That said, you are still at the mercy of "try it and see if it works." If it were me, I'd take the chance, but you have to make the final call. As in my previous answers about this set-up, I'd remind you to not give up if it seems it won't work initially. Chain length is critical in being able to keep the idler pulley from contacting the 30 tooth cog, and I think I may have messed with the stop screw as well. I wish you the best of luck!

Did some quick Googling and it looks like the Shimano 10 Speed Dynasys components are not compatible with any other style/brands including Ultegra. They used to be but not any more. Just basing this off of research.

I'm using it with a Dahon Mariner and it is awesome, I saw the picture for the Trek FX 7.2 and I don't see any reason why it will not work...

Yeah, it will fit. You will need a 9 speed chain for sure. The front shifter on a 4300 is designed for an 8 speed, so you can tweek the derailleur until it just barely works, or buy a new 9 shifter too.
