Review on πŸ”§ BOX COMPONENTS Four Rear Derailleur 8 Speed Wide Cage Black: Efficient Shifting Performance in One Size by Steve Quinn

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An excellent budget solution for converting to 1x8 format.

I recently converted an XS hardtail for my daughter. It was originally a 3x8 but I knew I wanted to use a simplified gearbox. I paired this rear mech with a box derailleur and a cheap crank, 11-42 cassette and NW sprocket (all from Revain). Installation was easy and I only had to do the bare minimum except basic switch setup. Lever travel is firm and precise. In general I am very happy.

Pros
  • Switch
Cons
  • Functionality
