Get one of the 12-36 Shimano 9 speed cassettes. It’s a 11-32 cassette that ditches the 11t for a 36t, should be good for 1x shartmo
Get out, man. This is the dead ender’s thread for a reason.

Fair enough.[/quote]
<3 I should do that, but I already have the shifters…
Was thinking about that, but I don’t want to use a big long derailler. Was planning on using a mid cage road.
Yeah that probably won’t work. You could try it with a really long b screw but that will probably mess with your shifting in general
I think you’d be fine with either 10s chain on 9s cassette or 9s chain on N/W chainring.
Sprocket box had naught but a pile of loose change and spacers in it. Washed and sorted them all out all sheldon browning. Reassembled a decent 11-32
That’s some bike nerdery right there 
the finished product:
OMG, why would you pair that cassette with a super wide triple???

Woah wait a minute, can somebody explain to me what happened here?
prolly went to drop a few gears while in the big ring and crosschained that mofo into the wheel
I bet they were too lazy to add links to their chain. or dumb enough to run that cassette x trpple. you decide
:grant:
[quote]A few days ago I was riding my Cheviot home the hardish way and thought I was in the middle ring, but was actually in the big. I shifted to the 40T ring in back (put on as an experiment) and the chain was a link too short, so this happened:
I gave it one hard pedal stroke and everything went haywire and got mangled and broke. No derailer in the world would have survived it, and yet this incident makes no case for going internal, no it doesn’t.
Internal is fine when it’s fine, which is sometime between never and rarely and not inexpensively. The point here is to not be dumb like me. DO make sure there’s slack in your chain when you’re in the big-big. The only way there wouldn’t be is if you did the work yourself and trusted yourself (as I did) to not shift to the big-big. Anyway, this is totally not a big deal, quickly and fairly inexpensively fixable.

Just one link too short. No doubt. Because dude can tell mm differences in bb drop and stuff, but can’t sense which ring he is in nor how long a chain should be with at least 4 extra teeth out back. One would hope that he’d have at max a 32 with a triple, but probably not.
I think some of you are confusing your internet bike villains.
Grant isn’t a 1mmer. The only measurements he cares about is how many more centimeters he can add to his chainstay length
Kinda surprised he hasn’t tried to make a lugged xtracycle
I was just basing it on dorth’s comment since I don’t follow either person on anything besides tarck.
I wonder if he even bothered putting in a longer b screw if he couldn’t even get the chain length right
9s deadender checking in…
Bought a 10s 11–36t cassette for $15 (I love a sale). Did that alt cable trick on the dangler and presto! 9s clicker is workin it, dangle-tuned out the 11t cog. Dangler didn’t burst on 36t. So happy.
Nice! You could teach grant a lesson or two, huh?
