Kogel Angles to be your T-Sort OSPW Improve
Apr
Kogel’s Kolossos derailleur hanger upgrades have made the leap to T-Sort, providing a substitute cage with their outsized pulleys spinning on ceramic bearings. They’d already launched substitute pulleys that match into the inventory SRAM T-Sort rear derailleurs, however now the T-ransformation is full…
There are two essential issues you must know in regards to the new Kogel Kolossos T-Sort. First, the cage is angled to imitate SRAM’s “Inline Cage” design that factors the decrease pulley towards the chainring to scale back noise and friction.
Second, it doesn’t embrace the clutch mechanism just like the inventory substitute cages do. So, you’ll have disconnect the inventory pulley from the clutch, leaving it contained in the derailleur’s P-knucle housing, then twist and bolt the Kolossos on instead. Kogel consists of the software to take away the 3mm tamper-proof bolt that SRAM makes use of to dissuade such shenanigans.
That is related however completely different to how you put in any OSPW on most different cages, however barely completely different solely as a result of T-Sort derailleur cages are supposed to twist out of the derailleur for tool-free swaps. Unsure what any of meaning? Right here’s my unique protection of the Transmission system for a refresher.
The T-Sort Kolossos begins delivery in mid-Might, is accessible for order now, and prices $475 normal for black, gold, or uncooked. For $525, you will get it along with your selection of cage, pulley, and {hardware} colours, mixing and matching from all of their obtainable anodized colours (provides blue, crimson, purple, and so on., to the combo).
Or, for a restricted time (and for $550), you will get it in shiny inexperienced/pink or pink/inexperienced Cerakoted combos. I imply, you do you, I’d most likely follow black.
