SHIMANO 105 FD-R7000 Front Derailleur

Producto original. Excelente Calidad

I broke the little plate that holds in the limit screws on my original derailleur, so I ordered this as a replacement. I should’ve checked the size of the tube that this clamps to, because this one doesn’t fit. However, I was ready to ride! So I ended up taking the part I needed off of the new one and installing it on my original and it works like a charm.

Very smooth transition between gears.

Shimano really complicated the setup protocol for such a simple device. I couldn't believe that I needed to surf YouTube to learn how to install a front derailleur. Their manuals with line drawings are terrible. I hate the lateral support screw they specify to stabilize the derailleur. It requires that you affix a small protector plate on your seat tube (double-sided tape which slips). It's critical if your seat tube is carbon and good to have for metal frames. The good news is, that if you need a frame clamp to fit this braze-on version to your bike, the Shimano branded one extends downward for the support screw to contact it (you don't need the accessory plate). The clamp-on version of this derailleur sidesteps this support screw problem, but adjusting it remains the same head scratcher as the braze-on version.
