Hello, wondered if I could get some advice
I wanted to turn my specialized tricross into a weekend (rear panniers only) touring bike.
I wanted to lower the gearing - currently it has an sram 11-28 8 speed cassette and a Shimano 2300 RD.
I have an hg 11-32 8 speed cassette I would like to use , does anyone know a suitable
rear derailleur , I can use - cheapest possible ? The 2300 RD seems a bit short to accomodate the 32T
I read the Sheldon Brown gearing pages but still cannot work out what RD i need ( thicko! )
cheers steve
