Rider questions

Q: Can I upgrade my 2005 Giant Trance 3 drive train to SRAM X9; do I have to chane the rear derailleur hanger to be able to use SRAM X9 rear derailleur? Thanks.

asked by on Apr 25, 2014

ANSWER

A: No, you won't need to change your derailleur hanger for X9. In fact, all your drivetrain parts should be interchangeable with Shimano parts assuming you're sticking with the same # of gears in the rear (11spd notwithstanding).
