Suoerbe Pro

That Superbe Pro looks very nice on there. It must have been costly. On my same bike I wanted a 28 in back which I don't think most of the short cages will handle. I got a very nice VX-s from a forum member here. I rode the bike without even noticing the cable stop and it shifted and seemed fine with the long cage Shimano presently on it. The plastic insert is still in, but the cable housing seems a bit short. Perhaps that keeps the cable from sticking out to the side too much. My build hasn't started yet.
