1992 Shimano Deore XT Derailleur.  (#1)

RD-M735 SGS cage (long)  (PH1.3)

Shimano second and final '7 speed' XT level Rear mech

From the Last of the 21 speed XT2 Groupsets.

Lovely old school torsion sprung rear mech.

It's pre used but in very good condition, there's no heavy scuffs or deep scratches anywhere on the body. There's a few little marks on the front name plate but nothing of any real consequence, the silver annodised body has still got a lovely shine to it!

(Please see photos)

The mech has been fully strip down serviced, cleaned, checked and found to be in perfect working order.

There was no sign of fatigue on either of the hidden springs and no signs of any previous water ingress into either of the (semi) sealed housings.

The cage's angular alignment is still factory square , all of the heads, threads and fittings are undamaged and are in a 'as new' condition.

The original XT pulleys are also in excellent condition with vertually no signs of wear at all.

A ceramic 'Centeron' guide wheel up top with a externally sleeved steel tension pulley at the bottom.

The mech was originally part of a (3x7) 21 speed groupset, but will shift just as well over 6,8 or 9 sprockets.

Really nice piece, reminds me of my youth!

Any questions (or sensible requests) AT ALL please just ask.

I have a few similar mechs on other listings, they're all in very good condition and have all been/or will be fully serviced.

Please disregard the yellow paint on the pulleys, this is for ID purposes and will be cleaned off prior to despatch.
