I rode a RF N/W 30T with an old XT derailleur on a hardtail for a while.
Occassionally dropped a chain (like 1 in 5 rides when it got bouncy.
Go for a 10 Speed clutch, not just for the chain retention, but for the
increased gearing of 36T on the rear, and a quiet drivetrain. The beauty of a
quiet drivetrain is often missed in these reviews.
How is the X-sync different than NW??
