XT rear derailleur 750 vs 760

[Smilin321]

Does anyone know the difference between the RD-M750 XT rear derailleur and the newer RD-M760. Both
seem to be available right now with the 760 costing more. I bent my LX(darn branches) and was
looking to upgrade. Comments on LX vs XT are also appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris

Is the '760 'rapid rise'?((backfire plus ala XTR?)

I believe the new 760 is designed for the new twistgrip brake/changer I don't know if it's
compatible with the older shifters.

Googled "RD-M760", got: http://bike.shimano.com/mtb/DeoreXT/componenttemplate.asp?partnumber=RD-M760-
SGS

It's "low-normal", aka Rapid Rise. Otherwise it's completely interchangeable with the M750.
