I'm wanting to put my LX 11-32 cassette on my new bike but I'd like to run a short cage derailuer in the rear since they are cheaper than a XT and I don't want a closeout long cage. I'm planning on running LX shifters, roadie rear 105 short cage derailuer, and either a 22/36 doube front chainring OR a single 36t or 38t ring up front.
Just wondering if the short cage road derailuers will work because on all of them it says max tooth in the rear 27, and I'd be pushing that up with a 32 so I want to make sure it'll work before buying parts.
