Can anyone point me in the direction of somewhere to buy a longer b-tension screw for my XT 10sp mech?

Remove your standard B tension screw and put it back in from the other side.

I took mine off and inserted it from the other side, the bigger head connected well and added the extra length needed.

Worth a try.

+1 turn around

But just go on ebay and put in the size (M2?) plus the length you want, and buy 10.

Is a bit longer than the standard 12mm b screw.
