I know a few members here have modded their Nuovo Record and Super Record rear derailleurs with the longer cages from Soma so they can wrap enough chain to shift a triple. Has anyone tried it with a newer Dura Ace RD? I'd like to use a 7700 or 7800 with a triple, so can I swap the cages over from a Shimano mountain bike derailleur or an Ultegra from the same era?
But Icepick, you'll ask, didn't Shimano make those RDs in a long cage version? Yup, they sure did, but they didn't make many, and they're priced accordingly.
