I am running 9 sp sram on my bike, i want a clutch type rear mech as th eidea of a silent bike really appeals.

so my question which google search has come up with thousands of answers but all fighting and contradicting -

[b]Can i put a X9 10sp type 2 rear mech on my bike with a 9 speed set up?[/b]

I presume it is to do with the thickness of the chain and the jockey wheel compatibility that is the issue here?

many thanks for replies

Dave

No but you can use a 10 speed shimano clutch mech with the addition of a spacer.
There have been a few threads on here about it.
It's about cable pull not chain width
