Submitted by fish a Weekend Warrior from Santa Cruz, CA, USA
Date Reviewed: February 13, 2001
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Strengths:Built to last
Weaknesses:none
Similar Products Used:everything shimano
Bottom Line:I have had this front derailluer for more than 3 years and it still works well. The pivots are starting to wear and has a little play in it, but it still shifts. It outlasted everything that was stock on my bike.

Date Reviewed: January 10, 2001
Favorite Trail:plattekill XC
Duration Product Used:3 months
Purchased At:came with frame
Strengths:it worked. sort of.
Weaknesses:adjuster broke. the low end screw just sheared it off. not good to lose your low ring during a race
Similar Products Used:alivio, stx
Bike Setup:98 homegrown 4banger. bunch of low end shimano off my old 95 rockhopper.
Bottom Line:well, it f--king broke, the lever that the adjuster screw hit was cleanly broken. which meant that it dumped my chain whenever i brought it down for a hard climb. it seems that of all the parts to break, that one should never. could be the previous owner did something to it. POS. vastly prefer the cheap STX i replaced it with. which at least works (yeah, i'm poor. so what?).
KICK IT IN!!!
