## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you know how well these work with a Shimano Deore 9sp long cage derailleur?**
A: It will not be a problem. This shifter is compatible with Shimano all 9s derailleur.

**Q: Can the rear shifter work in friction mode, or index only?**
A: The m96 is index only and only works with shimano style, 2:1 pull ratio rear derailleurs.  But it is a nice little jobbie for the price.

**Q: I know that this listing is for the 9 speed, but do you have any more of the 7/8 speed version by chance?**
A: No.

**Q: What's the maximum clamp diameter?**
A: I am not sure of the maximum clamp diameter, but it fits a standard MTB bar fine.  So if you are going to use it somewhere other than a handle bar, I would make sure it is close to the same diameter.  I do not now how much you can spread the clamp.  I also should have stayed with Shimano trigger shifters.  The Sunrace just is not as precise with my LX derailleur.
