I have a full suspension mtb with a 9 speed cassette. I took off my rear derailleur (SRAM X.7) for cleaning (soaked it in diluted degreaser) and mounted it back on my bike and put a new shift cable on it, and now I can't nail the adjustment. I also have a brand new work stand (as in, have never used one before). I referenced my derailleur's instructions to reset the high, low, and indexing, and I can get it to shift through gears 1-8 or 2-9 by playing with the cable tension, so it's missing a shift somewhere. I've never tried shifting the bike with the suspension unloaded, so when I'm actually riding the thing, will it shift through all 9 gears? Anything else I should try to get the shifting down? I don't think anything's bent out of place, but I guess it could be.
