Saint look nicer than Zee (I have a Saint on the Murmur) but the holes in the jockey wheels just collect crap. I like the jockey wheels on the Zee (on the Krampus - when not SS) which are solid and easier to clean.
I also love these little short cage mechs altho they were nearly impossible to get hold of when I last needed one just over a year ago due to Brexit / Covid. Hopefully Shimano keeps a wide range Zee / Saint in their line up if and when it gets revamped.
Out of interest has anyone recently tried a short cage road mech? Pre-clutch I use to swear by Dura-Ace / Ultegra (older ones off ebay). They used to work ok with a narrow wide. I had one on my HT for a while and didn't used to drop chains that often. Cassette size was limited but this was when I used to run a tiny road cassette 4x style.
