This is an in-depth tutorial on how to adjust a mechanical rear derailleur on a road bike, mountain bike or cyclocross bike. I explain this from the basics so that it's helpful for a wide range of mechanical skill levels.

great video! thank you very much!

Excellent video. I have the same derailleur and was able to get it working to perfection while watching this. Nice bike, as well!

Great thanks. There is another screw near the high and low limits, that pushes on the hanger. What is it for?

awesome vid, thanks mate

Great video thanks.

I know your components are slightly different but have you ever had an issue with shifting on your shimano MTB stuff using a sram chain? I broke my chain after 25 miles on my new giant trance three and stuck a new SRAM pc 1031 on and it shifts like crap in the rear and now likes to drop chains up front. It had the kmc 10 speed chain on with the deore stuff from the factory and worked flawlessly and never dropped a chain. Chain length is right, derailleur is adjusted properly. I put the old chain that I repaired back on to test for the sake of my sanity and back o shifting flawlessly. Is this a case of no cross compatibility between sram and shimano?

My bike shifts well but I still get that annoying sound from the rear gears. Does that mean that I still haven't managed to adjust it or is something bend?

One of the best video on this subject! Thanks a lot 😊

Very much like your videos Clint. Thoroughly explained and very informative. Thanks!!!

Major fan of your videos Clint, thanks!

Thanks for a great video

Extremely helpful, thank you!!

Iv been using your videos to help me do my first bike build iv been riding for a while and now trying to start building and working on my own bikes. I have a question about installing my rear derailleur. how much tension should i have in the cable when i attach it from shifter to rear derailleur

Thanks for the great explanation. Perfect for a bike maintenance noob like me :)

Thank you very much for recording this tutorial. It definitely will improve my saturday rides.

Great videos !! Very easy to understand and follow. Of course what I'm saving on repair cost , I'm looking to spend on some upgrades. I have had my Kona 29er now for over a month riding mostly weekends.
I'm thinking of doing a 1x10 conversion I never ride in the big front Cog anyway.

Keep up the grade videos

Great video Clint. Very clear explanation of how to adjust the rear dérailleur. Really like the look of your shifters. What brand and model are your shifters?

Great video! You saved me from going to my LBS everytime I need to make a small adjustment.Thanks again for the video.

Another great video! Could you do the one on front.

Also because of your last tip, I will buy a new derailleur hanger
