Great question! Yes, the inner plate is easy to replace. Just ensure the wheels are oriented correctly when you're finished. To replace the outer plate, you'll need to disassemble the derailleur. I hope this helps!
I think its total BS that Shimano doesn't sell spares like this for many of their products. And for products that they do sell them for, the prices are so high you might as well buy a new one. It really sucks considering how quick a fix this can be.
@@zoubtube fully agree. Seems it is Shimano SA as many sites have it advertised oversees. End up buying a XT derailleur as a replacement derailleur (after market) and cocks will almost be the same value as a new XT. 🤔
As a complete noob, can the inner plate be changed whilst it’s on the bike? for a shimano 105 r7100

Unfortunately it is impossible to sourse the inner plate for a Shimano Deore M6100 derailleur.
