Acolyte Medium Cage SpringLock Rear Derailleur
The heart of the Acolyte derailleur is our innovative SpringLock system. By pairing a customized linear rate high tension spring and a dual stage activation mechanism, we¡¯ve developed a system that can provide substantial chain security when you need it and can be turned off when you don¡¯t. To engage the clutch, turn the engagement bolt clockwise until it clicks. There¡¯s no way to overtighten the bolt. To disengage the clutch for wheel removal, flip the switch. It¡¯s that simple.
