    My bike curently has a sora RD and FD. I found a ultegra RD-6500 at a yard sale cheap and could pass it up. It looks to be in working order, and in very good condition. Would I be able to use it? Heres what my drivetrain is now:

    FD: sora
    RD: sora 8spd
    Shifters: sora SL-R400 24spd downtube index
    Cassett:SRAM PG-850 - 12-25T - 8-spd
    [font=Arial][font=Verdana]chain: Shimano/KMC HG-50 Narrow ‚ Dk Silver[/font] [/font]

    Just do it!!

    I bought my RD-6500 before I decided on whether go 8 or 9. I have three 8 speed cassettes off friends upgrades and only two 9s.

    If you check the Shimano bible, it says the 6500 is 8/9. 🙂
