Thanks for the reply but, I am not sure what you mean..Shayne said:Cable routing is irrelavant as either derailleur can be pulled by a cable comming from under the BB or down from the toptube.
Top pull is pulled by a cable coming from above the derailleur, while bottom-pull is pulled by the cable coming up from below the derailleur.ryan123 said:I have been having a conversation with someone lately regarding front derailleurs.... we don't agree on the following and are asking that someone can correct one of us!
A front derailler...
a 'top pull' has the cable come from under the bottom bracket and pulls the cable down
OR
the cable comes down the seatpost and pulls the derailleur up?
Thanks
