Yeah its a GS model. Couldnt clear the 36t cog. Ive read it sometimes matters how the frame geometry is, whether a too large RD fits or not.

Im thinking about upgrading to the new Ultegra with clutch. Its made to fit 34 so mine should work without the roadlink, and itll reduce possible chainslap.
Downside is the look, but whatever i guess.
