ShimanoTiagra 4700 Rear Derailleur Fitting Guide 

I want to add that when I see downvotes for this kind of video, I am reminded that there seem to be people that are never satisfied with any level of excellence. They baffle me. Be encouraged - your video is awesome.

Cannot thank you enough sir! Watched a lot of videos for both front and rear derailleur fitting. My chain was always scratching the front derailleur in the small/big cog and when I was pedaling hard chain was missing the teeth. Finally a professional who explains perfectly the whole procedure without shortcuts, your videos were the ones that troubleshoot my problems after weeks of struggling. Keep it up sir!

After having seen several other videos on the subject, yours was the first one that actually made complete sense to me. The only step that I did differently was that I installed the new chain first. The careful explanation was helpful, and the camera views were perfect. You obviously put a lot of effort into this video. Thank you.

I watched NUMEROUS videos and still fought with my setup for 3 hours. I watched your video and had it fixed in 10 minutes. THANK YOU A GREAT VIDEO......P.S I clicked subscribe

Truthfully speaking the best video on changing and setting derailure on you tube yet there are thousands of them .this one is the best .thanks for sharing.👍👍👍

I've just fitted a Tiagra 4700 to a Genesis bike build I've been working on. I must say that it works amazingly and is as smooth if not smoother than the Ultegra groupsets I have.

Best video on RU-vid on the subject - very straight forward.

step by step easy to understand video. perhaps hundreds of other videos out there jumps into adjusting and trouble shooting straightaway without showing the basics. I personally learned today that proper alignment and the major adjustment comes first, and then post installation only minor tweaks are needed. truly deserves more likes.

Thank you. Your videos are easy to understand and follow. You also indicate when to watch out to avoid making mistakes. You have helped several times. Again many thanks.

Excellent video. Thank you. You point to a few tiny details that make a lot of difference and a lot easier to assemble.

easiet tutorial found in the internet! thanks to you mate! just save money by tuning it my self :)

Congratulations on this excellent video. Easy to follow with plenty of close up shots to see what features you were explaining. 👍

First video very fluid and clear, can't mess after watching this video! Thanks mate! great job

First video I've seen where I think ok now I have an idea of how it should work instead of tinkering around and hoping for the best - thanks!

Excellent video. Thank you very much for providing your expertise

Top notch video..i managed to sort mine out.brilliant.saved a trip to the LBS 😊

Great instructional! Easy to follow! 👍

Detailed, practical, and complete. This one among others really helped me finish my project. Where are you from? Australia?

It's good that you haven't forgotten the poor people Tiagra is the real sweet spot in the Shimano hierachy

Good vid, very clear instructions.

Perfect thankyou as I've just brought this model very helpful video, we'll explained 👍

Excellent your video, very didactic. I have a problem with my Tiagra. When I go up the gears for the STI it just screw up. I think there's a problem with winding the cable. Have you ever seen something like this?

WOW! Great instructions

I keep braking cables too often on my Tiagra 4700, which is brand new. Cables wear out at the exit of the barillet because of a sharp angle towards the fixing bolt, notably when in "rest" position (H) . I have apparently no frictions along the tubing, which is also brand new. It takes much more tension on the cable in order to correctly perform the switches than you apparently do in the video. Do you have any idea of why? Excellent video by the way!

Thanks a lot ! Very detailed I appreciate it.

*_ 'B' Screw what is it used to adjust?_* Sorry if I missed something. BTW excellent instructional video.

Fantastic video.

Thanks for the vid.

Fantastic video, really really good. Thank you very much!

Thx for this nice helpful video

Very helpful, thank you!

Hey man. I wanted to know if the 4700rd is compatible with the olders 4600rd?. Asking because my 4600 rd has worn out and I only have the new 4700rd available as the older ones are obsolete now.

Great video , what size cassette are you using?

Excelent! Thank you sir🙏

Hi there, thanks for the great video! I'm currently using your channel to install tiagra 4700 groupset on a bike. I had a question ; I followed your instructions, but after tightening and securing the shift cable the shifter does not shift the rear derailleur. I've made sure the shift lever was set beforehand to the smallest cog, and it is a new groupset using external cable routing. I also watched your video on putting the cables the shifters and the cable seems to sit okay. Additionally the shift levers are catching appropriately on the internal mech and there is clicking in the shifter. I haven't lubricated the inside of the shift lever, or the ear derailleur but these are brand new Did you have any issues with the shifter not being able to actuate the rear derailleur with no chain? I thought it might be due to lacking cable tension, but if I tighten too much I notice the top flywheel of the derailleur losing alignment with the outer edge of the smallest cog on the cassette and I'm not sure if that is okay. Let me know if you have any ideas Thanks!

Is it normal that cable lasts only about 1500-2000 km with this derailleur? I live in very hilly area with constant gear changes, but already changed 5 or 6 rear cables.

Very helpful... 👌🏻👍🏻

What adjustment is needed on the B screw?

Thanks!

Mampukah sprocket 11-36t mulus ?

When sizing the cable housing for the rear derailleur, should I rotate the derailleur fully anti-clockwise and and make the tubing fit that angle?

Which chain do you use?

Would tiagra 4600 shifters work with tiagra 4700 rear derailleur?

is this short or medium cage?

I´m sorry to interupt, this didnt help me really. I have watched it about 10 times. My dearelliur doesnt shift the 2 first then not the last one. I set up limit screws first, so its perfectly in place, without cable. When i put on cable it wont shift all 10. Man this shit gives me a headache..

Great video, thanks, helped me tons installing mine 👍

Thanks!
