The carbon cage on my XTR Shadow rear mech is looking a bit worse for wear after an incident with a fallen branch. Is it possible to buy just the cage, or am I looking at a complete new mech? If it is possible, where from?

TIA

Exceedingly bling but more expensive than CRC's current price for a new mech.

Mines a Shadow mech - M972. Those are for a regular mech, M971. I might drop him an email to see if they would fit.

So, got my LBS to ask Madison about a replacement cage. Good news - you can get one. Bad news - it cost £160 - or the same as the RRP for a new mech. Since CRC are doing the mech for £94, I guess that's what I'll be ordering.
