B-tension adjustment on microSHIFT ADVENT and Acolyte rear derailleurs

Рет қаралды 285,128

The B-tension screw moves the derailleur attachment body up and down to make sure the guide pulley is the correct distance from the cassette. Learn how to adjust it properly for ADVENT and Acolyte rear derailleurs in this video.

That is an amazingly rusty chain for an official Microshift video 🧐

Of course not every microSHIFT bike is perfect, but this chain may a be little bit too "not perfect." I will demote the person that made this.

one of the reasons why I love microshift is because they included the adjustment tool guide in the package.

@lurker5087 Жыл бұрын

I was going over my cassette and derailleur because I have some grinding in the lower gears and I noticed that the spacing between the two is below the recommended amount but the b tension is pretty much maxed out at only 9 or so. there's no room on the screw to extend the gap

@microSHIFTTECH Жыл бұрын

Hard to diagnose over the internet, but one thing to check is chain length. From what you're describing, it's possible the chain is cut too long.

what if guide pulley is too close and too far from sprocket ? 11-13 mm ok . but does this cause any disturbance if away or close ??

@microSHIFTTECH Жыл бұрын

If the guide pulley is too close, it can hit the cassette when you shift, especially when you shift more than one gear. If the guide pulley is too far away, then shifting response is slower and there is less chain wrap.

Hey there I have a Centos 10s rear derailleur, what is my spec for the distance of my b tension? Where can I get that tool?

@microSHIFTTECH Жыл бұрын

We don't have a tool for that derailleur. The adjustment is to set the b-tension to the point where the pulley gap is as small as possible.

@O3ae Жыл бұрын

what happens if it gets too close or too far?

@microSHIFTTECH Жыл бұрын

If it's too far, the shifting performance will get worse. Shifts will be slower and less reliable. If it's too close, the guide pulley teeth can impact the cassette when you make more than one shift at once.

@michaelbohm2884 9 ай бұрын

By shimano is it 5-6 mm away from the largest

@microSHIFTTECH 9 ай бұрын

Depends on the derailleur, different designs have different recommendations.

@ev-ezaye3580 9 ай бұрын

@michaelbohm2884 like you said, that's Shimano's recommendation. This is content from mS specifically for their product!

@shanelagonoy8769 Жыл бұрын

I just set it as close as possible without it touching works fine tho💀 but will definitely be following the recommended 11-13mm

@microSHIFTTECH Жыл бұрын

That's a bad idea! If you shift multiple gears at once, the guide pulley can come into contact with the cogs and potentially crack.

Should the same distance apply for other brands?

@microSHIFTTECH Жыл бұрын

Nope. The same distance doesn't even apply to our other derailleurs. Every derailleur is different, so you pretty much have to look up the instructions for your derailleur and go from there.
