I purchased a Deore 9 speed rear mech from an Ebay retailer. The listing stated reverse spring, but the significance of that didn't register to me at the time of ordering. The "normal" position of the mech would have been on the lowest gear and the cable pull to shift to higher gears which is the opposite to any gears I have ever had. I have arranged a return as the mech has not been fitted and purchased the correct mech from the same seller. However, thinking about it, what would be the problem with the gears working backwards? I wouldn't have thought it would take long to get used to it, and once in gear what does it matter how you get there.
