Have you got rough man hands or girly smooth ones?

teetosugar thanks very much, but I am in france so won't be able to get it. I just need to get gears on HJ and I want to know what dérailleur I need to buy.
Cheers

Built up a Handjob for my girlfriend this weekend but struggling to remember what it was we used as we bought the parts a while ago. Pretty sure it was a top pull though and was working fine.

Can you not just check the cable routing on the frame? Most front mechs will cope with either anyway.

You have to respect someone who actually takes the time to add the acute accent to the word [i]dérailleur[/i].

teeto I know but between your fee and the price of the postage it's going to be similar to buying one at the LBS.
Clive it's déàd éàsy from an azerty kéybôàrd 😉

is it not a case of looking at cable routing?... and modern ones seem to be able to take both anyway....

I laughed so much a bit of wee came out...

Think I need to see a doctor about that...
