Hi Joe,
Thanks for your observation. In the many generations of this bike I
ran 105 9 speed brifters with this derailleur. It shifted “ok” but not
great. I was told that with the Shadow XT mech that the road and
mountain parted ways and weren’t compatible.
You were misinformed if the Shadow XT was a 9-speed. Road and MTB
parted company with 10-speed MTB DynaSys. In fact, the "standard
solution" to getting lower gearing with a > 32T large sprocket during
the entire 10 speed road era was 10 speed shifters, 9 speed MTB rear
derailleur. Many of my riding companions have the same setup with 10
spd cassettes w/36T large sprockets.
