...or is it much harder to get the wheel back in with one of these fitted compared to a 'normal' mech?
I fitted one at the weekend and found it a real faff to get the wheel back into the dropouts.
If there's a knack to it - I'd love to know what it is.
Thanks

Never had a problem with mine. Slides in just the same as any other mech
The chain must be on teh smallest ring but apart from that piece of piss. You are pulling the cage back aren't you? It's hinged so you can.

No it doesn't - mine never is when it goes in and it goes in fine
It is definitley harder. I found the same with sram mechs.
Ok cheesy feet. "Must" was maybe too strong a word but if it is on the smallest cog then it does make life a lot easier. But, as us old Usenet geeks say, YMMV.
I find it difficult even in the smallest cogs. Much harder than older XT
