Friends XO mech died on Sunday. Luckily it was on the return leg from Cut Gate to Lansett so not the end of the world.
My google foo is weak. Can you get a spare cage? Have seen the jockey wheels but was the cage that fell apart.
Cheers
I wish, I have two X0's with busted cages.
@sandwicheater -
If it's who I think it is, I was riding with her when she bashed the dérailleur. Not surprised it went in the end as it wasn't working great on saturday either.
I haven't seen the cages available for sale separately. May have to eat the cost of a new dérailleur
It is indeed a lady friend. Puts tin foil hat on and looks suspiciously at spawnofyorkshire from behind the couch.
Cheers for that guys.
Don't end it here, I am hoping someone will link to a cheap source of X0 cages..
Fingers crossed.
It really depends on the model, for 2011-2013 models there seems to be a 'cage kit' available, but for some others it says "Outer cage not replaceable".
Assuming you are in the cage kit camp, a simple search by the part number should yield some (mostly US-based) results, i.e.:

Way to make having a mutual friend sound creepy! I'll probably be the one fixing it for her anyway
Ok so it's part number 11.7518.010.001 for a medium cage with new jockey wheels. However that does look like inner cage only. The outer is non-replaceable according to SRAM.>
May need to ask at an LBS
Edit: wot he said ^
it might be your lucky day
i have at least one spare xo rear derailleur
