I'm looking for the above.

There's a few XTR ones kicking about - but the only information on the box says 'S/M/L'. Do they fit 31.8?

Can anyone find an alternative Deore or similar, side swing 2x10 for 31.8? Most seem too big, and don't come with an adaptor it seems.

Last couple i've bought have come with an adaptor.

IIRC it's one size band (34.9) and adaptors for M(31.8) and S (28.6)

Next question - does an 11sp front derailleur play nicely with 10sp road shifter, chain and chainset?

Cheers all - I've actually ordered what is a 2x10 Deore one. It's says a 34.9 clamp, but every other font derailleur comes with the shims. If not, I can buy shims to fit...

Now I can fit mudguards onto the Vagabond properly....no more rubbing and breaking zip ties.

I have a new direct mount one sitting somewhere in my “impulse buy but will never use box of bits” that you are welcome too. Yours if you want it Although guessing if you are asking about 31.8 you are needing a band on?
