Just tried to adjust the gears on my five to get better shift by winding out the b tension screw but the slx clutch mech now fouls the mech hanger. Is this normal or have i bent something.
What were you hoping winding out the B screw would achieve?
Sounds like you've just wound it out too far.
What are the symptoms of it not shifting properly in the first place?
Usually it's down to cable stretch, or excessive friction between inner & outer cable, unless something is bent.
Struggle to see how you could have bent something screwing out the B screw, just screw it back in until it no longer fouls.
Whats the symptoms, pictures of the above if it really is an issue.
Out of curiosity have just had a mess with mine and yes its normal, mine also fouls if I screw it right out (orange 5).
