Anyone know where I can find a 9sp triple roadie front mech for a 28.6 seat tube?
Everything I find for a triple is now either 10sp or for flat bars. Ideally looking for 105/Ultegra level so all the logos match!
Cheers, Dave
You're gonna struggle to find one new.
Ultegra and 105 have been 10spd for a while now I think, maybe try classified forums?
Eh?
Just use a 10 speed front mech; it's a FRONT mech, and it doesn't know it's being used on a 9 speed drive train....
will the chain width not make a difference?
Nah.
Ah yeah, can't believe I never realised that! I blame the early morning!
Would a mtb mech be OK?
It can be made to work but it's never great because of the different chainring radiuses.
not sure a mtb mech would handle the 52t chainring, found a tiagra one which should do it....
cheers, Dave
on CRC you have a choice of 8,9 or 10 speed roadie triple front derailleurs..
example 9 speed ones for 28.6 in stock:
