Reliable, precise, and a natural fit for any period-correct 9-speed Shimano road build. Braze-on versions are less common than clamp-on and more sought after for dedicated road frame builds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Workshop Wisdom<\/strong> \u2014 Braze-on FDs require a braze-on tab brazed directly to the frame \u2014 if your frame has a clamp-on tab only, you&#8217;ll need a braze-on adapter. Set cage height 2\u20133mm above the largest chainring and align parallel to the chainrings before setting limit screws. Bottom pull means the cable routes from below \u2014 confirm your frame&#8217;s cable routing before ordering.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guarantee<\/strong> \u2014 You put in the miles, we put in the work. 30-day guarantee on fit, function, and condition. \u2013 Paul<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong> \u2014 Shimano 105 FD-5500, front derailleur, braze-on, 9-speed, double, bottom pull, silver, road bike, Japan, 5500 series, 105 front derailleur<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Will this work?
