The 2008 range versions of the Chorus front derailleurs have a standardized fork that is compatible with both standard and compact cranksets, the front derailleur body has been redesigned to embrace the two plates and guarantee snappier shifting. The new inner plate design is overturned compared with the previous one to improve the thrust of the chain when shifting towards bigger sprockets, the result is increased rigidity of the assembly to guarantee more than ideal performance.

Features and benefits:

• "Z-shape" inner plate  -  greater rigidity, greater thrust on the fork 
• Standardised Standard/Compact fork  -  versatility
• Antifriction treatment  -  smoothness, long life
•  Light-alloy fork  -  weight savings
• "M-brace" body  -  more rigid system, better shifting

Tech specs:

• Braze-on only
• For double standard and CT (compact) crankset
• Max. chainring size 55t,  min. chainring size 34t
• Light alloy fork with antifriction treatment
• M-brace™ body
• Z-shape™ lower cage
• Weight : 76 g
