Need some advice i cant decide weather i need a top swing or a conventional derailleur? spoke to various people who give me different opinions. I have had a google with no such look but is there any body that can shed some light on this or what have other people used.
Im using a 10 speed triple up front.
thanks

Either will work. It's only really on sus frames where you'd generally require one over the other.
Top swing looks tidier. Conventional probably work a bit better, but they also get in the way of the bottle cage if that's a problem? You can always get a Tacx Tao style cage anyhow, which has a gap between the mounting bolts.
