Will these marry up to this 2006 XT 9 speed rear mech?
These are the only ones listed on the Merlin web site for Shimano, but are Deore?


Thanks!

i used BBB wheels no issues at all.
+1 for BBB £10.33 from Dotbike.
Get the 11T steel bearings, remove a rubber seal and fill with grease.
Fit to mech and ride...for years.
The pack you show is a bushed 'bearing' as fitted to SLX and all lower Groupos. They last no time and soon give a shonky change.

Thanks for that!
Another for BBB
-1 for BBB
mine were packed with grease BUT then siezed. Bushing jockey wheels are better as bearings that small are shite
Anyone tried aluminium jockey wheels? There's quite a variety on Ebay.
These are great http://mtzoom.com/jockey-wheels/
about the only component to survive Kielder this year...
£31 ffs!
About the same price as XTR, and so far much more robust. Not cheap, but you do get what you pay for. Actually, cheaper than three pairs of Deore, and I suspect will last more than three times as long...

Plenty on here!
I've got KCNC jockey wheels. One bearing change after three years (£7) and still going strong.
