I don't mind changing out the derailleur for something different so long as it will work with my shifters. Any recommendations?
If it is the Sora RD-3500 mid cage (looks to be in the photo), a 11-34 cassette should work with just some a B screw adjustment. It would probably work with a 36T as well, but I haven't tried.
