ive been attempting to set up this bike for a few days. the groupset came from another bike which was a little tatty. i degreased things and reoiled them. im not really into degrease baths but have tried it out on this rear mech because it was pretty bad, jammed up on the bolt that attaches it to the mech hanger and last week i found screw fix sell 5ltrs for £8.
the problem is the mech wont spring back enough to tighten the chain,
if i ease it back a little i shows this,
the top jockey wheel ends up being too high in the first shot. ive got the screw that pushes into the hanger all the way in, the shots blurry on the silver screw,
and it looks like a fix could be a longer screw? or a replacement derailleur?
thanks mark
