Front teeth Smallest rear teeth Largest rear teeth

Use up to three front tooth counts, separated by /. For one rear sprocket, enter the same count twice.

Rear tire

Rear tire marking

Apply the marking on your rear tire or edit its dimensions below. Older or fractional inch sizes need the ISO marking (e.g. 37-590).

Rim diameter (BSD, mm) Tire width (mm)

For 32-622, width is 32 mm and rim diameter is 622 mm. Use the rear tire on mixed-wheel bikes. Leave both fields empty to compare ratios only.

Frame and fork

Inspect the frame and fork →

Archived: Frame: TIG-welded

Inspect the complete frame for cracks, dents, distortion, heavy abrasion, suspicious paint differences or evidence of a previous repair.

Drivetrain

Check drivetrain wear →

Archived: Group: Shimano Deore XT · Shifters: Shimano Deore XT RapidFire · Front derailleur: Shimano Deore XT · Rear derailleur: Shimano Deore XT · Crankset: Shimano Deore XT, 22/32/44 teeth · Bottom bracket: Shimano BB-ES72 · Rear cogs: 9-speed · Chain: 1/2 x 3/32"

Shift through every available gear under light load. Hesitation, skipping or inconsistent indexing can reflect wear, damage, poor adjustment or mismatched replacement parts.
Measure chain wear with a compatible gauge and inspect chainring, cassette or freewheel teeth. A new chain does not rule out wear in the remaining drivetrain.
Turn the cranks slowly, feel for rough bearings and check for side-to-side play. Inspect crank arms, chainring bolts and pedal threads for looseness or damage.

Brakes

Inspect the brakes →

Archived: Brakes: Shimano Deore XT V-Brake brakes, Shimano Deore XT levers

Inspect pads, cables and housings, then examine both rim braking surfaces for concavity, cracking or heavy wear. Confirm each caliper returns and centers correctly.
