This is called "Chain Wrap".To formula for chain wrap is (Big Chain Ring - Small Chain Ring) + (Big cassette Cog - Small Cassette Cog). So if you are using a compact double chain ring (50-34) and a 11-36 cassette the numbers work out to (50 minus 34) + (36 minus 11) or 16 + 25 = 41. This means that if you shift from a big-big combination to a small-small combination, your derailleur has to be able to handle 41 teeth of loose chain, which calls for a long cage. On my bike a have a single 40 tooth chain ring and a 11-42 cassette so the chain wrap works out to (40 - 40) + (42 - 11) = 0 + 31 = 31. So even though I have a huge cassette I only need a medium cage because I have no front derailleur to create more chain wrap.Hope that helps. **Q: what is short, medium.long cage?** A: It has to do with chain wrap capacity. Small=30t Chainwrap Capacity, Medium=35t, Long=47t. The wrap is just the difference between the number of chain ring teeth plus the difference between the cog teeth. For example a 53/39 with a 12-25 cassette requires 14 + 13 = 27 teeth of wrap capacity needed from the RD. **Q: Will this work with Shimano Ultegra shifter** A: No, actuation will only work with sram.... The good news is that it will work with both sram 10 speed road and Mtb... Unlike the newer 11 speeds witch are road or mtb specific. **Q: Can this be used with a shimano 11/42 cassette ?** A: I used it with a sunrace 11-42 cassette but I needed a longer b tension screw(which was not provided) so you will likely run into the same issue. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sram MTB Gx Type 2.1 Long Cage Rear Derailleur - Black, 10-Speed - SRAM GX Trigger Shifter 10-Speed Rear Black - SRAM PC-1051 10 Speed Chain w/PowerLock 114 Links --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/20172372-gx-type-2-1-rear-derailleur-10-speed](https://www.desertcart.at/products/20172372-gx-type-2-1-rear-derailleur-10-speed) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-11-12*
