31t difference on the cassette and the medium cage SRAM 10-speed derailleurs have a 39t capacity. You should be set with the medium cage.

ill super lazy, and cant pedal for ****. Quick reminder about 1.5 years ago i tore 3 ligaments, dislocated my patella, torn patella tendon and fractured my tibia. So its really hard for me to pedal super hard at the moment.

not to mention im fat and lazy.
