What Rear Derailleur should I get?
Well it's that time, I think I need to get a new rear derailleur. I've got a Kona Stinky with 9 rings on the back, 2 up front.
I've done almost ZERO shopping around yet. What would you guys recommend?

Any 9 spd der will work. Do you have indexed shifters? Sometimes the shifters have to be upgraded as well. Do you need a long or medium cage?
Id get an X7 or X9.beefcake. BEEFCAKE!

Agree on the SRAM. I have used the x9 and it's a great one. Heck, I even recently went with an x5, and it's awesome also, despite the low price.

SRAM X-9. The most trouble-free derailleur I have ever owned.
Are we there yet?

I love xt with the shadow plus, your bike wil be quiet and no more chain slap. I am running xtr right now with the shadow plus and love it!
Two wheels are better than four, keep the rubber side down.

Given the age of the bike and the weight not being an issue, I would buy the cheapest that I could find even deore or lx or scram equivalent.
