Chain sizing varies by model and cage length. For example, Version 1 long cage derailleurs typically require adding two inner links after placing links next to each other on the chainring. Always consult the specific manual for your model (e.g., ADVENT X vs. standard ADVENT) to prevent damage.
The recommended torque for tightening the rear derailleur fixing bolt to the hanger is typically between 8-10 Nm using a 5mm hex bit.
Shift to the largest cog on the cassette. Adjust the B-tension screw until there is a specific gap (commonly 4-6mm or up to 8-9mm depending on the model like XLE or XCD) between the guide pulley and the tallest teeth of the largest cog.
Check if the cable tension is correct using the barrel adjuster. If shifting is slow to a larger cog, turn the barrel adjuster counter-clockwise. If slow to a smaller cog, turn it clockwise. Also ensure the limit screws are properly set and the cable housing is not kinked.
