Shimano XTR FD M985 DynaSys front derailleur

The XTR FD M985 E-Type front derailleur is designed for 2/10-speed XTR cranksets with 40/28, 44/30, 42/30 and 40/28-tooth configurations.

The width of the derailleur has been reduced for easier installation, and this derailleur naturally delivers the same outstanding shifting precision as other XTR components. The E-Type derailleurs are mounted to the bottom bracket via the mounting plate and additionally bolted to the frame, and can only be fitted to frames designed for this purpose.

Lightweight nickel cage, hollow stainless steel pivot pins, optimised shape for full-suspension frames – the high-end front derailleur, Shimano XTR FD-M985.
