I have a 9 sp tiagra shifter on my tricross, an xt mtb cassette and an lx rear mech. I want to replace the cassette and the rear mech - can I go ahead and choose any 9sp rear mech that shimano make? Or are there cable pull issues with road v MTB shifters etc.

They will all work- 8, 9 or even road 10 speed (but not MTB 10 speed...).

ETA - Another question - Can you use an SRAM cassette with shimano derailleur and shifter? Cheers.
