Description

The RoadLink from Wolf Tooth Components unlocks nearly limitless gearing options for road or gravel bikes. By offsetting the rear derailleurs position, itÃÆ'¢â‚¬™s possible to run a wide-range mountain bike style cassette with a standard road drivetrain. Whether the ultimate goal is to move to a single-chainring drivetrain without losing any gear options, or just to open up new terrains and routes, the RoadLink is an ideal choice.

Optimized for use with 10 or 11 speed cassettes 11-36t or 11-40t cassettes without compromising the shift quality of the smaller cogs. The RoadLink performs best when paired with the Shimano drivetrains it was designed for, however it works with SRAM and Campagnolo drivetrains as well. The RoadLink installs in just minutes and is simple enough to be done in your garage.

Good quality. Works better than advertised!

Full disclosure, my bike is a full on custom build with several parts "not recommended" because they are not supposed to work. That being said, I did have to slightly "adjust" the shape so it would fit properly on the existing hanger. Done several rides with hard shifting under stress with no issues and perfect performance . I will be buying another "just in case". Don't think I'll need it but you never know....

Works as described

I'm out of shape due to work demands and there are few flat spots where I live. The RoadLink is a simple fix to get lower gears without the expense of a new derailleur. I put it on in 10 minutes, fiddled with the cable adjuster for a couple more and just like that I got much easier hill climbing.

Returned because it was not required to accommodate a new cassette

Returned... Local bike shop had stated that the Wolf Tooth was required when changing the cassette. But, the short cage worked fine and accommodated the new cassette without having to purchase a mid-range cage.

Simple and works perfectly

The wife and I wanted lower gears for touring. She has 105 and I have Ultegra. I was able to get a 40 tooth cogset on hers and 42 on mine. The RoadLink worked perfectly.

Nice little product, but has one issue

I bought this to be able to put an 11-36 cassette on my SRAM Apex drivetrain that comes with an 11-32 cassette. The information online says everything will work just fine. There was just one issue. The roadlink part is supposed to be a perfect match for shimano derailleur hangers (which actually have a mechanical spec), but they don't fit the derailleur hangers used in SRAM systems. After a little googling I found that the roadlink support web page suggests filing down the derailleur hanger to make the roadlink fit. So that's what I did. It is a minor thing, but this should at the very minimum be included in the product information included on both the website and in the packaging.

Once the hanger was filed down for the roadlink to fit, it has worked perfectly. The 11-36 cassette shifts smoothly and it got me up Mt Washington just fine.

Additional clearance for bigger rear cogs

If you have an older medium- or long-cage derailleur, but can't get the B-screw to allow larger cogs, this is the solution. It works well with an Ultegra RD-6870 Di2, effectively avoiding a purchase of a new $200 derailleur with the B-Link.

If you want low gears get one of these

I am using this with a 46-30 crank and an 11-40 cassette and it works great. I have the FSA EVO Adventure Crank and a Shimano 11-40 XTR cassette, 11 speeds. The product specs suggest that the above 16 tooth differential for an 11 speed drive will not work, but mine works great. I initially used this with 46-36 shimano ultegra with an 11-40, adjusted that to a 46-34 shimano ultegra with the same 11-40 cassette. The 46-30 does create a bit of a large shifting gap when going from the big chainring down to the small, but I usually just move my cassette down a gear to keep the gap smooth. The really low gearing is for my gravel bike, that I often ride up steep dirt roadstrails and the low gear is a real life saver at times. Really glad for this product.
