Description
Will this work?
- SunTour Compe-V front derailleur
- 28.6mm clamp, bottom pull
- Double chainring, friction shifting
- 1970s Japan
- Includes: derailleur only
Condition: Excellent condition. Finish is clean with minimal marks. Cage is straight, pivots move freely. Lots of miles left.
Notes from MyBikeThing: SunTour’s golden weight weeny era for you: simple, overbuilt, and still working long after fancier parts gave up.
Workshop Wisdom: Friction-era front derailleurs like this don’t care about speeds — double chainrings from 5-speed to 9-speed setups, it’ll shift them. Set the cage 2mm above the big ring and parallel to it, and you’re done.
Guarantee: You put in the miles, we put in the work! 30 day Guarantee, rest assured of fit, function and condition 🙂
