Just gone 1x9 - 32 front 12-32 rear and still have std long cage (SGS?) rear mech. I want to shorten the chain a bit more though, can I go medium or even short cage to tidy things up? Thanks

short cage will be fine. I run a 105 short cage road mech with no problems

road mech shouldn't work with a 32, and i have had them catch and fold into the cassette; this was on full sus though. previously they worked on a hardtail. maybe better off to run a medium...

My 105 works fine with the 32 sprocket at the back and a 34 at the front on a hard tail with the tension screw wound in. Might have just got lucky though
