Rear Derailleur replacement
Hi all!
Glad to have found this forum! ok, I love bikes but I am not so technical- if it breaks I try and fix it, but as far as specifications go I have little to no idea.   So, on my Carerra mountain bike the rear derailleur is busted- bent and distorted and not salvage-able. It is: Shimano ACERA X RD-M291 (I don`t know if it`s a long or short cage? Is there a way to tell?) Now, I have been looking online for a replacement part for but have so far not found one. The best I have come up with is a part on Amazon /uk which is a "Shimano SORA" GS It looks very similar, would it fit? What shoudl I do? I want it working again as soon as possible, it`s just wrong having a bike sitting in pieces Also, the rear wheel has been bent and ended up turning like an "S", I don`t have much funds to replace these parts though so if there is advice please bare that in mind. Ok, thankyou for your time.  |
