Shimano part RD-M510 (Deore, from a year or two ago) is rated for 8- and 9-speed use. I plan to use it on a Shimano 7-speed system with the SRAM PC-58 chains that I use on my other bikes, and from what I've read, I don't foresee a problem. Does anyone know that it won't work? Thank you. Stephen Greenwood

Turns out I also use an Alivio 7-speed shifter (1993 vintage) on my snow-bike, so it should work well. Thanks for putting this to bed. Stephen Greenwood

I run an "officially" 9-speed Shimano low-end rear derailleur on my hack bike, which has a 7-speed screw-on block, and old cheap Shimano Alivio 7-speed trigger shifter. SRAM PC-48 (or could be a 58) chain. - Nigel -- Nigel Cliffe, Webmaster at http://www.2mm.org.uk/
