Will this work for a mtn bike with 8 gear wheels in back and 3 in front? Previously had a Sram 5.0 derailleur.

well, I think so man, it fits a 11-34 T cassette, in my case my bike brang a shimano one, check your cassette before, but it should be right.......
1753346
Yes, the limit screws can be set for an 8 speed rear cassette. The 3 front won't be affected by this.
1753347
Yes, it will work fine assuming you have the correct shifters (sram 1:1/x.# whatever). If your previous mech was a x.5 you shouldn't have a problem. Having single, double or triple up front doesn't make a difference.

I did not see the whole question earlier. The Sram 4 and Sram 5 may have a different shifting ratio. The Sram 4 has a different ratio than Shimano. I think the Sram 5 is the same as Shimano, so it may not work without other changes. I am sorry I didn't see the whole question (Amazon's fault) initially. Good luck.

8 speed works fine on mine, came with skewers, spacing works on my 1999 Diamondback Topanga that came with 8 speed. Good wheels, used for several hundred miles of loaded touring, plus some technical singletrack and no problems.

These will most likely not work. Sram is 1:1 Ratio and Shimano is 2:1. I had to replace my rear Shimano derailleur but was able to use the front Shimano derailleur.

this one is to use in mountain bike... i recomend you a tiagra front derailleur

As long as you have a Shimano deraileur it should work. Make sure you get the 7-speed set for a 21-speed (3 front/7 rear)

I'm not sure about he SIS but I would think so. I don't know the model of my front derailleur but it has two gears as my bike is a 14 speed and it worked great for me.

well seeing as nobody else has answered your question properly...no. You have a 3x6 speed, so you'll need 3x6 shifters, unless you want an extra click in your shifters...you could also go and get a 7 speed rear cassette (which would also need a new rear wheel) and then, hey presto! more gears to play with! So, in short, this will not work properly.

Hi, yes it can be switched to this SRAM MRX if you have the cassette of 8 gears, it will fit perfectly fine.. This part are similar to the gripshift, but the quality is more better and durable, and smooth shifting on the SRAM MRX..I hopefully help you correct...

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

I couldn't say for sure, but this is made for mountain cassettes with wide ranges, with not so small differences between gears. I would say get a road derailur made for the small steps between gears. Cant say for sure though.

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.

it's a front derailleur... not a rear. that said, I bought this and use it with my 1997 Specialized stumpjumper which has an 8 speed cassette. works great.

You would need a 10 sped chain (thinner than 9 sped to fit the 10 speed cogs) Also you may need a different front derailleur if going from a double to a triple Shimano has a Web site technical documents specifications or call Shimano technical departmeant

11-36, 12-36 gearing is typically for mountain or cross bikes. If this is going on a road bike, most likely your derailleur is too short and will not work with the the larger gears. Most road cassettes only go up to 28t (and that is probably the max a "short-cage" derailleur can take). If you want easier gearing, go with 12-28t, compact chainrings in the front, or get a med-cage derailleur to handle the 12-36.

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.

If your rear derailleur will accomodate a 28 tooth gear, this freewheel will work. There is a website www.disraeligears.co.uk, on which you can look up the specs for your derailleur. It is also a good idea to install a new chain with the new freewheel. The old chain has worn in with the old freewheel. A new chain will shift better.

No, you must pair it with a derailleur that has a 1:1 ratio. They worked very well with the matching SRAM derailleur.
