Dizi Does Downhill Productions present a video how to reduce the clutch tension on the Shimano M5120 rear derailleur on Dex's Polygon Siskiu D24X. We remove the clutch cover and loosen the tension screw. Thanks for watching!
I learned a while back that typically it's best to clean any mech before worrying about adjustments or lubes. I had an issue with a stanchion that I kept oiling and eventually cleaned it which was the issue. So once the tube was cleaned, sticktion was eliminated.
Hey Christopher - thanks for the comment. To be sure it was a quick and dirty adjustment. I fully expect to follow your advice in the near term to get the mech a little smoother. Thanks again.
@@dizidoesdownhill no worries. I view vids all the time that if the viewer knew the best way from the start and that other temporary shortcut options are available, they are better informed. I am pretty new to all this myself but being from a tech background...well enough said. Thank you for your time to film-assemble and edit this video.
I’m always keen to receive feedback as it makes the process easier the next go around. As they say, you don’t HAVE to make all the mistakes yourself! RU-vid is a great community to mutually learn.
