Shiamno XTR FD-M9000-E Front Derailleur 33SP E Type Side Swing

Mountain biking has rapidly evolved since the previous introduction of Shimano’s top level XTR groupset. Shimano sees different directions in mountain biking with wheel sizes and riding styles changing and now defines four main categories within mountain biking. Competitive Cross Country is driven by physical efforts while Enduro focuses on more technical challenges but both have equivalents at the non-competitive Trail level. To serve mountain bikers who will only settle for the best, Shimano today introduces the new rider tuned XTR M9000 groupset.

Side-Swing Front Derailleur FD-M9000 for 3x11-speed

 Shimano’s new FD-M9000 masters front shifting for double crank sets with the first-ever Side-Swing front derailleur design that increases shift performance by 100 percent. Designed specifically with modern trail bikes in mind, Shimano’s XTR FD-M9000 Side-Swing front derailleur provides 15mm of increased tyre clearance whilst new cable routing dramatically reduces the shifting effort.

Type: E-Type for bottom bracket mount

Note: Because of the front position of the coiling cable bushing at the front derailleur, the shifting cable must be installed inside or above the down tube.
