Pushing it a little on the way home tonight and I heard a crunch from the rear wheel, the mech had caught the spokes and got mashed up. Twisted mess and a need a new mech......nice long walk home carrying the bike :sad:
Any ideas which mech I need, its the old blue and black model from 2010.

Like this one CK had... hope its okay using your pic :smile:

As long as I breathe, I attack.
If i were you i would change to something a bit higher up the food chain , i went through 2 bog standard mechs as i found that the rivet (?) that holds the jockey wheel cage to the parallelogram becomes a little loose over time and can lead to sloppy shifting.
I now use a sora rear mech and i found it a lot crisper.
