recently bought a second hand orange alpine, it is about 2-3 years old.The gears have not worked properly since I bought it a couple of months ago, the cassette and chain were worn so these have been replaced but I cannot get the new gears to run properly.
I have followed the tech tuesday guide for setting the derailleur (sram x9)so I hoped it would work so before I stress any further do I need to check for a worn rear derailleur?
existing rear derailleur sram x9
new shifters fitted shimano slx
cassette replaced with shimano deore HG50 (11-32 as before)
sram chain pc971
bike is a 9 speed 11-32 with two front cogs
high and low stops set ok
starting from the highest rear gear the first 2 gears fit ok but then i need to double click to get the next two. I cannot get into the lowest two gears.
Then started from the lowest gear, again first two ok but then will not engage the next two without a double click and then I cannot get the last two highest.
Am I just being useless and need to get someone who knows how to set this up or could this be down to perhaps the spring wearing in the derailleur?
after buying shifter, chain and cassette I was hoping this would work, getting fed up (and broke) very quickly
Please help
Cheers
Mark
