I’m using 36/22 with 11-32 and an SLX medium cage mech (GS) at the minute, theres plenty of capacity left on that setup for a 11-34 IMO, although the SLX M662 mech only seems to come in Medium and Long, and the “Medium” isn’t all that short when you look at something like a saint…
I can only imagine you would use a long cage 9 speed shadow mech if you wanted to use an 11-34 cassette with a triple, and for just about everything else (1/2 x 9) a Medium would be more than ample…
Actually does anyone need a 11-34 cassette with a double though? I mean as a gear 22-34 is pretty spinney…
Why not stick with an 11-32 cassette unless you want to run 38/24, 40/26 or 40/28 up front, then 11-34 might make a shade more sense… Right?
