Can anyone give me any info on max ring sizes for 2x10 with a GS cage on RD
I have 11-36 on back with RD-M786 GS, I was 1x10 with a 32T but now want double. Trouble is I have a Direct Mount FD-786 so I can't move it down enough to keep the rings small on my XTR cranks.
I have a 24 inner but if I put a 38T with it that will make my chain difference 39T and Shimano Tech is 35T max for GS cage. So I would need to go 24-34 with the 11-36 to keep it 35T max difference. But my FD 786 is going to struggle to work with anything less than a 36/38.
Would the GS cage work ok with 37T max difference if I went 11-36 cassette and 24-36 front? or do I need to go 26-36 at the front to be safe.
Has anyone else done this, cheers
