Interesting. I have seen some seized clutches (not a % that I would have thought extreme) with the higher end derailleurs but this Deore derailleur was well lubed from the factory. Just picked up a fresh Zee derailleur for myself though and I have to say it’s impressively tight in every way for the money.
Haven’t seen or heard of a single other 12spd shifter issue and I’ve worked on quite a few Shimano 12spd bikes in the shop. Where have you come across the issue with the shifter ratchets?
