Model/Year: 2012

Pros: Medium Cage is much better than long cage. Works much better in technical terrain.

Cons: Nothing yet.

Recommendation: Great product for the price and it appears to be very durable.

Pros: Is a good all around rear Deraillur. I like the short cage though as you have more clearance in technical terrain.

Cons: Ghost shift.

Pros: Sram 1:1 is always precise and crisp. Stronger than the X0 and more resistant to stick hits.

Recommendation: Dependable durable derailleur. For people who don't like the fragility of the X0 but love its shifting.

Pros: Very strong, accurate shifting.

Cons: Nothing.

Recommendation: Dependable. After owning Shimano derailleurs for years and having to replace broken xts all of the time I am happy with my x-9 and will never go back

Pros: great product at a great price

Cons: last to long,,how can I justify getting a cool new xo if this one never breaks!

Recommendation: mine has been had a hard life beat and bashed most of the logo is gone and it still works like it did when iy was new.

Pros: works great, as it should

Cons: none yet

Recommendation: smooth and dependable shifting. Mine has taken a beating and still continues to perform the same as the day i got it.

Pros: This is a great product--everything a RD should be.

Cons: None

Recommendation: 99% of the functionality of an X.0 at 40% of the price.

Pros: Works great, does what it is supposed to. not too expensive.

Cons: None for what it is.

Recommendation: Great rear mech that works well and is crisp shifting and looks clean.

Pros: Smooth shifting

Cons: Nothing so far.

Recommendation: To me, this is very close to the X-0. Just not costly. You will not be disapointed in this derailleur.

Pros: great derailleur, excellent shifting!

Cons: any derailleur can get busted up if you fall on it enough

Recommendation: love it! i need a new one though.

Pros: Quick shifting with the 1:1 action. Tough as nails and looks good too.

Cons: None.

Recommendation: Get this derailer if you like quick, crisp shifts all built into a rugged design.

Pros: works

Cons: none

Recommendation: Good bang for your buck, works well for a reasonable price.

Pros: 1:1, Durability, VALUE!!!

Cons: none

Recommendation: Couldnt be happier, as a testament, a couple rides ago saw me pick up a small log that hooked a spoke and made a full revolution around my wheel! It bent the derailer hanger (i didnt notice it till i got to the store) and it was out of position by more than an inch. It still shifted perfectly! Good stuff.

Pros: Nearly all the features of the X0 without the cost.

Cons: nothing

Recommendation: Wonderful shifter works great and very little chain slap with this compared with the shimano line up of derailleur's

Pros: Very stylish and strong and hold up very well through my aggressive style riding. Once fine tuned, shifting is top notch & fluent. Great value also.

Cons: None

Recommendation: For anyone

Pros: Crisp shifting. Great design. Durable.

Recommendation: Going one step higher than this seems ridiculous for the to me, but I understand if you have a ton of money to burn or if you just want the most expensive stuff on your bike, then you would pass up the X-9s and go for the X-0s. The X-9 system is great and I have not damaged, replaced, or been dissapointed with either sets I have owned (one newer, one older). Crisp shifting and very reasonably priced. Great shifting. I can't justify paying mucho $$$ more for a little less weight and a little more show. I've ridden the X0s several times and never have regretting decknig my rides out with X-9 series.
